  1. Bakup log rotation

    Plesk does not rotate backup logs and we needs to delete them by manual.
    Backup log might be very big, therefore Plesk should rotate backup logs automatically to prevent oppression of disc capacity by increasing backup logs.

  5. This is why I see that --no-zip doesn’t work in the right way, is not useful that Plesk use a switch like --no-zip and the destination direc

    Plesk 12 on Windows

    Actually, pleskbackup utility uses a flag named --no-zip where files into the destination compressed folder are not previously compressed, but Windows OS read the .zip extension of the folder like a compressed file and this increase so much the backup time (this because become a great I/O consumption).

    I think this is not much useful, the correct behavior should be that when a --no-zip switch is used, the destination is not a ZIP file but a standard directory!

    In case of servers where many domains with thousands of little files, use a "normal copy" instead of…

  6. Backup: limit backup operation by time period

    Server-wide setup to avoid users/customers to do backups on some time intervals. avoiding cpu usage on backups on premium time, leaving more resources for webserver related processes.

  7. Migration and Restore Troubleshooter

    The Migration Manager has become better over the years, but there are still occasions in which restores and migrations simply fail due to error messages that do not make sense. We had similar issues with web configuration files, and thanks to the Troubleshooter Extension they could be greatly minimised.

    Migration Manager could benefit from a similar extension - perhaps on both the source and destination server and correct problems.

  8. Allow full backup

    Currently you can only backup configurations and customer files. While I have installed a few Plesk extensions and PHP extensions it is necessary for me to backup the full server. Allow a option to backup/restore full server with all components.

  9. A License Model for HotBackup Standby

    I would like to run a live Backup Server which is synchronous to the real server. If the real server goes down, i would like to change the ip and go online again. For that concept, I need now two full Plesk Licenses. Is there a way to get a cheaper license for the standby backup instance?

  11. Provide sufficient data in site backup file to re-register Joomla installed Application

    With sufficient backup file (info) configuration about an installed Application (in this case, Joomla) it should be possible to "export and import" a site with a Panel installed application and have that application reappear in the Plesk server where the site is "restored". Such information is currently written to the site backup file for WordPress.

    Don't necessarily need "Joomla Toolkit" ala "Wordpress Toolkit", but having sufficient configuration information about an installed application should be usable by the Plesk restore (CLI) process to restablish the previously installed application in the "new" Plesk server.

  12. Manage folder for download dump backup

    Actually, you can't manage folder destination when you download a backup from plesk interface

    Add an option in plesk interface to define the folder path for :

    Full backups -> /usr/local/psa/PMM/tmp
    Domains backups -> /usr/local/psa/tmp

    However when you download backup files from the Plesk Control Panel, they are copied to a temporary location as a temporary file (these parameters are not manageable) and if you have small partition genrally /dev/md1 not enought than 18 Go, you can block all plesk server

  13. cloud storage for photos - best option?

    After years of storing photos on disks, I've started looking into subscribing to a monthly cloud storage service to back up my photos. However, I recently saw a service called CloudBacko (http://free.cloudbacko.com/?r=1d) that offers huge amounts of cloud storage at free of cost. How reasonable? Does anyone else use cloud storage and, if so, which service would you recommend and why.

    Could you please elaborate what you mean here:
    a. Better Spanish language in Plesk product?
    b. Ability to have response in Spanish from Parallels support?
    c. Ability to file Spanish proposals at plesk.uservoice.com?

    UPD: Unfortunately we have to decline this suggestion because we can only read and respond in English and we do not plan to officially support feature suggestions in Spanish at plesk.uservoice.com.

  19. Preserve Backup Option

    Place an option in the backup manager to preserve or lock a backup from being overwritten. The setting to only keep a set number of backups in the system would ignore backups that are preserved or locked. Allowing you to exceed the number of backups allowed by the system. This is helpful if you benchmark a good backup at a particular time but want to go back later. Especially good for testing situations. Customers should have the ability to use this to block a particular backup from being removed from their account on their individual backups as well. Administrators would…
