  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS.

Command-line backups

Is it possible to run command-line backups like on Linux?
 
Since you asked your question in the "Plesk for Windows" forum , I assume your servers operating system is "windows". Therefore you cannot run linux backup commands from the command line. If you are running a linux operating system on your server and have "root" access, then you can run the backup commands from the command line.:

He's asking if he can run the backup utility from the command line in Windows, similar to what he does with Plesk for Linux.
 
Doh! I noticed in the Email alert I got for scheduled alerts -

For user: psaadm
Running task: "C:\Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\admin\bin\backup.exe" --config-file "C:\Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\Backup\backup_schedule.psc"

So I'm assuming I can run
C:\Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\admin\bin\backup.exe --config-file C:\Program Files\SWsoft\Plesk\Backup\backup_schedule.psc
from the command-line.
