I never used the plesk plugin. I can tell you how it works thru ssh.

Logon to the server thru ssh.
Make yourself root and type: crontab -e
Add the line down here...

30 6 * * * reboot

Thats it!

ps... why do you wanna restart the server every morning?

Maybe cron doesnt except reboot, try "/sbin/init 6" instead
