backup only database daily. not with all file..
for me my DB only 200mb and site 5GO...

I know that the backup feature was rewritten in 12.5, but it is very difficult to easily identify various server and individual site backups on a remote FTP drive now that all you see displayed in the UI is the date / time. The backup features of 12.0 that included adding a prefix to the file name and also being able to actually see the file name is sorely missed.

When it comesto FTP Backup one can configure external FTP space and det a folder to be used.

If that folder does not exist Plesk errors out this fact and the normal user is somehow lost.

It would be a nice feature to have a checkbox to be checked that says "create folder structure if not existing".

I want the backup restore feature to be added to the XML API

Kindly add a GUI progress notification for extraction of zip files.
Thanks.

Right now Plesk backup system is very limited to be honest, it's missing some key features, one thing i would like is to be able to controle backups way more then now, and have multiple locations to backup to.

1) Abillity to do multiple backups pr. day, option to controle what is backup at what time points, ex database backup at 6:00 12:00 18:00 and full backup 00:00.

2) Abillity to have multiple backup locations, with our barebone setup we have multiple backup locations, 2xFTP and S3 backup, Plesk is missing the option for multiple backup locations.

Requesting the ability to set a day of a week, or day of the month that the full backup will be ran if using incremental backup.

reason for request:
for our setup, we have 15 plesk servers running all of one SAN. we find that on the day of the week the full backup is running, the IO / load on the SAN is much higher. it would be nice to be able to space out those servers by selecting days the full backups are preformed.

Hello,

While creating backup via Plesk control panel it would be great to have ability exclude email accounts of particular domain name, not all email accounts at once.
This is due to the fact that when the mail accounts are very large, it significantly increases the time to create a backup, and causes it's freezing as a result.

Thanks.

it would be great when the content of roundcubemail, like contacts and identities can be included in the backup. It would make life easier in case of restoring a customer who uses only the webmail feature for mail.

I have some websites that have a big DB, but it do not change or change not often. I this case i do not need to backup it every day.
So i would like to exclude this DB files from backup to save the disk space.

Would love to see Rsync support added. SFTP is slow.

Plesk Migrator is a great tool but it don't migrate backup settings.
Please make this possible !

Hello, is it possible to add Pcloud backup app to plesk like other services amazon cloud or dropbox.

Can you please make an option in the Dropbox scheduled backup for weekly and monthly...?

We want to turn off daily but keep weekly or monthly.

This is also useful for bandwidth when you are being charged everyday to output xxGB out of the sever to Dropbox. (weekly may be ok since this Dropbox is not the primary backup solution but a secondary one for us and we don't need it to upload the xxGB backup daily...)

Thank you

An option to backup the email configuration of the server but NOT the content as well.

A simple checkbox in a service plan to mark, if this service plan includes the scheduled backup. The scheduled backup should backup a domain if and only if the domain has a serviceplan with this flag checked.

If I want to restore all files of a domain because the website has been hacked.... default restoration will simply overwrite existing file.

In the cased of a hacked website, hackers can add suspicious files on the domains and those files won't be remove upon restoration.

It will be great to have an option allowing us to opt for a purge before restoration so that we can completely replace the files, databases, etc. and not simply overwrite existing files.
