Question Exclude files from backup (.ssh, directories above httpdocs/)

Paul Larson

Basic Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS
Plesk version and microupdate number
Version 18.0.58 Update #2
Though it's minor, the daily warnings / log errors about Plesk not being able to backup .ssh files is a nuisance.

Since the .ssh dir is /var/www/vhosts/example.com/.ssh (that is, above httpdocs/), what syntax, if any, works for configuring Plesk to skip that dir?

Constant error is:

Code:
Unable to back up extension. Error: Failed to exec backup_restore_helper: Exit code: 1: Failed to copy files storage to destination path. stderr: filemng: Cannot open destination file '/var/www/vhosts/example.com/.ssh/id_rsa.VZRZtk'System error 13: Permission denied

I'm my Backup config, I list these directories to exempt:

/var/www/vhosts/example.com/.ssh/
.ssh
httpdocs/.ssh

Any other ideas?
 
It's actually root:root

drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 22 17:30 .ssh

...which seems to be common across all my Plesk domains.
