Plesk should recognize the failure of backup at FTP Storage as an emailable error.
In Scheduled Backup settings, you can tick; "if errors occur during the execution of this backup tasks send a notification email to...". However, if the backup is set up to go to FTP Storage and the FTP site can't be reached, the backup is done to the Server Storage and no error email is sent. This is a problem because if a few days of backups intended for FTP Storage fail and go to Server Storage, contracted server space could be exceeded causing Plesk to suspend / disable the site.
Plesk should complete the backup to the Server Storage, but…

in case of backup: to add the domain name in the filename of the backup. That would be much easier to have a relation to the customer..

Automatically removing of "mysql.preupgrade.*" files
Add an opportunity to remove old database backup "mysql.preupgrade.*" files from the "/var/lib/psa/dumps" folder after the end of the upgrade
1 voteI think it is a bad idea to remove them automatically because these pre-upgrade dumps can be used for recovering your Plesk after serious crashes, unsuccessful updates and upgrades, for restoring missing data, etc.
So, you can always remove these files manually if you are sure.

check backupsize befor restore and copy to server from external ftp
there wanted to be a check that first checks if enough free memory is available on the server before the recovery starts.
it is quite possible that backups fetched from an external ftp storage have around 50 to 100 gb or more and grow to over 200 gb after unpacking, just to recover the one file, unless it is done so well that only that one file is fetched from the archive that is also needed, e.g. when recovering one or more files for a web space.1 voteThank you for your input!

Not sure that this may be automated. Firstly, not everyone wants this. And secondly, what is the default time to assign this Scheduled backup?
I think you can use Event manager with the corresponding command for enabling this backup in case of triggering Event “Subscription created”.

Service Plans: add possibility to select several backup options.
In Service Plans, under "Additional Services", add the possibility to select several backup options, such as:
- Acronis Backup in case that Extension is active, just like for WP Toolkit and Let's Encrypt. If not selected, the service would not be accessible to the Customers having a Subscription with that Service Plan, while the content of these Subscriptions would still be backed up by Acronis.
- The options to backup to clouds, such as Google Drive, OneDrive, Amazon S3 in Plesk 17.8.
This would help to better differentiate between different Service Plans on the same Plesk server.

Bacula backup system or similar
Integrate Bacula system or similar backup system, with a clean-easy panel configuration =) , mysql integration and other setups to work fine =) =) =)
6 votesThis feature request has not received a lot of votes. For that reason we suggest to ask Bacula if they would like to develop an extension for Plesk to integrate their offer with Plesk. There are many other backup or storage space vendor extensions already. Also check out the Plesk Backup to Cloud Pro package that expands the backup options to many commonly used platforms.

Check backup and restore utility for FULL Server.
Hi,
When using backup/restore to restore everything on the server it doesn't work.
For example: I had a problem ith the server and I had to reinstall it.
So I created a backup via backup manager
When I tried to upload it gave error 404 (due to file too big).
Then I had to copy the backup folder directly, ok, so I went to backup manager and tried to restore everything.The server was configured equally, name, applications, everything including same versions.
The restore reseted all passwords, mysql, email accounts and DNS was not restored correctly.1 voteThank you for your input!
