Backup querry

New Pleskian
Hello,

I'm a new user to Plesk and would like to ask a quick question about the backup feature offered.

Does this include a backup of all mail for each account?

I guess the broader question is, does the backup contain everything I need to then restore it in the case of a major server failure?

I see there is an option for 'configuration and content'. If I use this option, would I be able to restore ALL settings, config and content (including mail) IF I had to restore to a clean install of Plesk?

Thank you in advance.

That's correct, make sure you set a password for backups, so they can be easily restored on a different VPS/Server and you will be good.

Plesk -> Tools & Settings -> Backup Manager -> Settings -> Scroll to bottom of page.

Plesk's encryption key
Specified password
