Resolved backup manager password lost

christian

Basic Pleskian
i'm new server on old plesk server. plesk 12.5 centos7
but facing a big problem.
after incident, i must restore backup.to new server in plesk 12.5 and centos 7.
so, the previous admin has left without giving us this password.
so, we don't updated the password
in Home -> Tools & Settings -> Backup Manager ->setting. (backup security parameter)

the question is.
can i retrieve on old server the password set in the parameters for backup manager. ???
anyone know where this password is stored.?

i really need help on it.
thanks in advance
 
you are able to restore a backup ( secured with a password ) without a password
Wow, good to know! I was always wondering why the password entry did not require a repetition so that accidentally false passwords can be prevented. I was never sure that the password typed in is the one that I really wanted, so it was always a surprise whether a restore will work or not ... Good to know that "just in case" at least the data remains accessible even if the password is lost.
 
well, it's not a real solution, because proceeding like this have a price.
all password can't be restaured because they are encrypted, and will be randomly generated by plesk.
in my case i must restore more than 400 domaines and all email linked..
my question was,
HOW TO RETRIEVE THIS PASSWORD SAVED IN THE OLD PLESK CONFIG..?? WHERE IT IS STORED?
