Resolved Hourly backup with Google Drive Backup

[MicheleB]

Hello,
I'd like to know if is possibile to set a hourly backup (incremental) with the "Google Drive Backup" extension (I've a licence of "Backup to Cloud Pro").
Now I can only set a daily backup on the backup section of Plesk.
Thanks.

Hello,
habe a look here:
Multiple backup rules or more options

I've read the request on UserVoice and if I haven't misunderstood, it is not possible... correct?

Hello,
yes it's possible:

One solution would be with the Acronis Backup extension in Plesk or you do it with an scheduled task that runs every hour.

An manuel for it you can find here: How to create hourly backups in Plesk


If you have any further questions, let me know.

Ok, thanks but my question was on "Google Drive Backup", Acronis is another (payment) tool.
Moreover, the "scheduled task that runs every hour" works only for "local" and/or "ftp" server not with Google Drive Backup, at least reading these instructions:
pleskbackup: Backing Up Content and Configuration

Anyway thanks for the support.

The feature "Hourly Backup" is in the making in the scope of improvements of the Plesk Backup Manager. It is planned for this year, but there is no ETA yet in which one of the next updates it will become available.

Important for me is to backup to Google Drive, not just local. When you create a shedule backup, you can choose daily, weekly or monthly. A new option "hourly" would be perfect.

Plesk 18.0.54, published July 18th, 2023:
Added the ability to schedule hourly backups in Backup Manager. To enable the feature, add the following lines to the panel.ini file:

[pmm]
allowHourlyTask = on

By default, the ability to schedule hourly backups is only enabled for Plesk administrators. To enable resellers and customers to do so as well, go to Tools & Settings > Backup Manager, click Settings > select the “Allow customer and reseller accounts to schedule hourly backups” checkbox, and then click OK.
