Yes, seems to be possible. Unfortunately, you have to use sudo, not su for this purpose. But if you have su access, you may install sudo and use it.

Hmm ... not able to install sudo.

Can I import a full psa backup (6.01) into 7.5.4 ?

AFAIR, backups are incompatible between the versions. You only know will it break if try.

Backups can't be ported between different versions yet. This should work fine in Plesk 8 though.

I've asked the developers and they said they have plans to made backups backward-compatible in the future, but they did not say anything about Plesk 8. How did you know about it?
