Resolved Plesk backup fills up usr partition

Hi Piero Meloni,

to UNTAR files, you would use for example:
Code:
tar tvf backup_1709192305.tar

Did you consider to read the official Plesk documentation, where "Restoring Data" has been described ?

 
thanks, but plesk does not see backup files so I'll have to work with command line but in the guidelines I can not find the right formula

now I find the files as such

/var/lib/psa/dumps/clients/mydomain/domains/mydomain.it

how to restore? Thank you
 
Hi Piero Meloni,

pls. use for example ( logged in as user "root" over SSH ):
Code:
/usr/local/psa/bin/pleskrestore --restore /var/lib/psa/dumps/domains/mydomain.it/backup_info_XXXXXXXXX.xml -ignore-sign -level domains -verbose
... and have a look at the corresponding log - files ( => /usr/local/psa/PMM/logs/ ), if you experience issues/errors/problems.
