• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Question Backup Manager default actions ???

AndreasY

Basic Pleskian
Hi, something im unsure of and have not managed to clear this issue up via the Plesk help documentation.

Can someone tell me if this is whats meant to happen.

If we go to a subscription and then to Backup Manager and press the 'Backup Up' button on the top left, we get a dialogue box that has various settings, but no setting that is related to scheduling a backup.

Now, as there is another button that says, 'Schedule' (to the right of the 'Backup Up' button) I interpret this to mean that the 'Backup Up' button is used for a one time backup with NO scheduling.

And if one wished to schedule a backup for the subscription they would use the 'Schedule' button to achieve this.

Now onto what I am seeing,

If I use the 'Backup Up' button to create a backup, it is also automatically activating a schedule backup

Is this what its meant to do ????

Thanks
 
Hi, @AndreasY .
Yes, 'Back up' button open form for onetime manually created backup, when 'Schedule' button open form with setting of backup's scheduling.
But why you think that 'Back Up' button activates scheduling? Do you see that 'Activate this backup task' option enabled at 'Schedule' page or you have unexpectedly created backups?

Hi, I dont think that 'Back Up' button activates scheduling.

Thats the exact reason for my post, because that is what it seems to be doing!

Hence the reason I wanted someone from Plesk to confirm what the default actions should be as I couldnt find this documented anywhere.

Anyhow, as I didnt receive a post from a Plesk representative in a timely manner I am doing further troubleshooting.

Thanks for the confirmation for the default actions.........
