How to Change the default pleskbackup location to 2nd drive?

[Chris-TT]

Can anyone tell me how to change the default Plesk backup location, I want to change the default location to /dev/ad2s1d so all backups are saved to my second drive. I'm running FreeBSD 6 and Plesk 8.0.1
Cheers

Ok worked out how to do it.

Edit /etc/psa/psa.conf
Line 73 Change:
From: DUMP_D /usr/local/psa/var/dumps
To: DUMP_D /backup/serverbackups/dumps (your new directory)

Then copy across the old backups:
cp -ipr /usr/local/psa/var/dumps /backup/serverbackups

Make sure permissions are set to 750 for /backup/serverbackups and you need to change the ownership of serverbackups to psaadm (chown psaadmsaadm serverbackups)

Any problems you get will most probably be to do with ownership or permissions so check everything against the original location.

When it’s all working you can delete the old backups from /usr/local/psa/var/dumps
