Add an additional HD to Plesk

[AmeliaG]

Hello,

I added a 40GB HD to Plesk (directory is /home2).

My goal is to use this HD for backups. Under psa.conf I tried to change "DUMP_TMP_D /tmp" to "DUMP_TMP_D /home2", restarted psa, but when I use the backup manager I get an error "the directory home2 is does't exist or is not writeable" .

Please can someone help me to resolve this problem? Thank you ! Amelia

Hi,

I've not tested this but in theory it should work:

# rsync -a /var/lib/psa/dumps/ /home2/
# mount --bind /home2 /var/lib/psa/dumps

That's it

Regards,
Kristian

No, it doesn't work. Under the "download backup file to your local computer" I get an empty page.
