    I have a remote Windows 2019 server running Plesk. Incremental backups are done daily and stored locally on the server; complete backups are done weekly and stored in a DigitalOcean space. Backups include database dumps of the SQL Server (Express) database. My own machine is a Mac, running...

    Issue Rescued backups are shown as 0 bytes size

    Issue Backup takes very long and slows down entire server

    Since I recently updated Plesk to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.52 Update #2 (Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS), we had a few issues with our server.

    Question Disk full when backup to external FTP.

    Hello everyone, I have a doubt about the backup manager while using external FTP. The server has a capacity of 200 GB, out of which 130 GB is used by subscriptions and 60 GB is free. Plesk compresses everything locally before sending it to FTP, which I believe is necessary. However, I need a...

    Question High memory consumption while uploading Plesk backup to external storage

    When transferring Plesk backups to external storage targets, an unusually high memory load on the Plesk server can be observed.

    Question Joomla Toolkit :: AutoDelete Backups?

    Is there a way to tell the joomla toolkit to keep only 2 or 3 backup files? Since when you activate the automatic backup before an automatic update (which makes quite sense) then you'll have in a few months a quite huge amount of backup-data... On my server there are aprx. 100 Joomla...

    Question Acronis - Excluding Files
