• Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is 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.

Export/import of site with forwarding uses 2 IP addresses

RationalPolymer

Basic Pleskian
When backing up via Panel one or more sites where they contain a "forwarding subsite" for Plesk Panel-12.0.18 server A and then importing/restoring those site backups into Panel-12.0.18 server B, the import/restore process displays and requires confirmation on 2 IP addresses: the hosted site IP and the server main/primary IP from Panel server A. I understand and know how to deal with the site IP during import/restore but don't understand why there is a 2nd IP based on the Panel server A main/primary IP address.

In the site+forwarding INFO XML (site backup) file there are two "<ip>" declarations. In a site with NO forwarding there is only one "<ip>" declaration. Why?

Also, the net affect of this is that the site+forwarding restoration creates a "webspace" plus a "subscription" when the site originally was a single "subscription".
