  1. Limit rate of backup

    Full weekly backup for all domains create a huge I/O throughput on our SAN that stress too much our infrastructure until backup ends. It would great if we can tune data through a pipe like "pv" command do.

    I.e.
    This is an example of backup that stress the SAN:
    mysqldump -A -q --single-transaction=TRUE -u $MUSER -p$MPASS | gzip > $_file

    This instead is and example that do not stress the SAN:
    mysqldump -A -q --single-transaction=TRUE -u $MUSER -p$MPASS | gzip | pv -L 512k > $_file

    in the last command we set the maximum rate limit of 512k. Of course…

  2. Disable email notifications for a specific domain.

    It would be nice to be able to disable email notifications for a specific domain.

    Right now, the notifications can be managed by an account type: Administrator, Reseller or Customer. Thus, the notifications are enabled or disabled for all domain of an account. More information here: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213413209-How-to-enable-disable-email-notifications-in-Plesk

    Such scenario is not suitable when the notifications are to be received globally but some customers just don't want to receive them for a specific domain.

    cronjobs can easily be managed by Linux commands already. They may not be sourced from Plesk, but all tools already exist on the operating system. As cronjobs are read by Plesk from disk, manipulating the corresponding files on disk will set everything you wish. Individual cron files are stored in /var/spool/cron and can be text-edited. You can add files, edit files, append files and delete files using Linux commands. You can also stream-edit files (e.g. insert a commend tag before a line with sed) and also create Linux control while-loops to apply changes to filtered files. Cron can also be controlled directly (https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/crontab.1.html). 

    Please let us know in details what you are missing or please provide an example how you would like Plesk to work with cron instead.

  5. HTTP verbs management by Plesk on Windows

    There is a common need due to Rest API-development to able to switch on / off http verbs for IIS server. Verbs are according to my knowledge configured in the ApplicationHost.config file which cannot be configured via web.config file. So, please consider implementing this in Plesk. Also make this available in Classic Asp settings which also locates in the ApplicationHost.config file. For Classic Asp and also for ASP.net, by default only GET and POST verbs are available.

  6. Install MySQL Connector/ODBC 8.0 to support modern TLS versions and ciphers

    (This is related to https://plesk.uservoice.com/forums/184549-feature-suggestions/suggestions/44353242-add-mariadb-connector-odbc)

    > Drivers

    MySQL Connector/ODBC version 8 needs to be available to Plesk users, because 5.3 is outdated, not to mention 3.51.

    In MySQL Connector/ODBC, there is support for new, modern TLS versions and ciphers.

    https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/encrypted-connection-protocols-ciphers.html
    > As of MySQL 8.0.26, the TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 connection
    > protocols are deprecated and support for them is subject to
    > removal in a future version of MySQL. See Deprecated
    > TLS Protocols.

    And please remove MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51. I cannot think of any reason Plesk should rely on, or support, this version. The following runs perfectly in…

  7. Add possibility configure solutions from different CDN providers directly via Plesk

    At the moment Plesk does not support any CDN solutions.
    However, CDN is a useful feature that minimizes delays in loading web page content by reducing the physical distance between the server and the user.
    Please add the possibility to configure solutions from different CDN providers directly via Plesk for example such as DigitalOcean CDN or Cloudflare CDN.

    The new DNS Integration for Cloudflare extension is production-ready since Plesk 18.0.56, published October 10th, 2023. If you are using Cloudflare, you can now also benefit from the Cloudflare CDN.

    Please comment which other CDN providers you are using in case this does not yet cater to your needs.

  8. Option to enable or disable automatic issue SSL certificate per domain (instead of per subscription)

    Currently in Plesk a subscription can contain multiple domains. But there is no option to manage which of those domains should be automatically secured with a SSL certificate. There is only the "Keep Websites secured with free SSL/TLS certificates" option for the subscription, which affects all domains inside the subscription.

    This is a suggestion to create an option to be able to manage the "Keep Websites secured with free SSL/TLS certificates" on a per domain basis.

    Use case example:
    When a subscription is used for hosting multiple domains, sometimes some of those domains aren't transferred yet. For example because the…

  9. Add Cgroups Manager services to Watchdog's monitoring capabilities

    For reliable usage it would be preferable that watchdog could start the processes for Resource controller (Cgroups) and controlld from the Cgroups Manager component if the process for some reason shuts down.

  16. Сhange type of notifications via CLI using the utility plesk sbin crontabmng

    Please add feature to change type of notification (do not notify, errors only, every time) about scheduled task completion via CLI with plesk sbin crontabmng utility
    Currently, to change such notifications (via CLI) not only values in database need to be changed but also values for SendMailOnlyIfFail option in C:\Program Files (x86)\Plesk\Schedules\psaadm, C:\Program Files (x86)\Plesk\Schedules\Root files.

    Such steps are not ideal while changing the settings for a large number of servers.

  20. Add Connected Null Values option for graphs in Plesk Monitoring extension

    Grafana on its own allows the option to connect null values.

    On Grafana native environment, there should be an option "Panel edit -> Panel -> Display -> Stacking and null value. “Connected”". On Plesk's extension, no such option exists.
