• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be 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.

Issue Exclude Folders from Serverwide Backup

Fabhino22Elz

Basic Pleskian
hello there,

i am running server wide sceduled backups in plesk interface.

i have several subscriptions running on that server.

now i want to exclude several folders from several subscriptions. some folders are completly different in names and some include same phrases like "local" in the folder name e.q. "local.test.folder"

to exclude for example:
/var/www/vhosts/domain1.com/foldername
/var/www/vhosts/domain2.com/local.test.folder
/var/www/vhosts/domain3.com/foldername
/var/www/vhosts/domain3.com/local.test.folder

how can i exclude such specific folders from serverwide backup?
 
You can create cron task for pleskbackup utility. This utility has some exclude options which may be useful for you:

Code:
# plesk bin pleskbackup --help | grep exclude
                 Use Exclude options to exclude some resellers/clients/domains.
  --exclude-reseller=<obj1>,<obj2>,...
  --exclude-reseller-file=<file>
  --exclude-client=<obj1>,<obj2>,...
  --exclude-client-file=<file>
  --exclude-domain=<obj1>,<obj2>,...
  --exclude-domain-file=<file>
  --exclude-pattern=<obj1>,<obj2>,...
                 You can only exclude files within webspaces.
  --exclude-pattern-file=<file>
                 You can only exclude files within webspaces.
  --exclude-logs
