  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS.

Migrating the plesk stored data to a new drive IE: vhosts directory.

Hello Plesk board members,

I have an issue where we are starting to grow in size and are starting to run out of space on the default drive where Plesk was installed. Here is the scenario:

Parallels Plesk 9.5 for Windows installed on a Windows Server 2003 machine.

C: has only a few gigs left and is where Plesk stores our vhosts file which contains all of our user website data.

G: has 100gb free and is empty.

My question is: How do I migrate that vhosts directory to the G drive so that there is no interruption to the users or at the very least, a 30 minute down time scheduled late at night? I'd like to have Plesk use the G drive for storing user website files and also be able to migrate what we have already.

I'd appreciate any information you guys can give me and hopefully we can get it fixed soon. We are running low on space!!
 
I think that you may just schedule some downtime for night hours and change vhosts location with Plesk reconfigurator.
