• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Plesk Backup Manager unstopable?

Hi,

i have a problem with the plesk backup manager. The backup manager scripts are running 24 hours a day, resulting in 90% - 95% CPU load, infinitely. Maybe this is caused by local backups and too little hdd space (over 90% in use).

In the meanwhile I changed the configuration for all web hosting backups and I restarted the server. All backups now should be done between 23:00 an 01:00 clock and will be copied to a ftp backup space. Also I cleared lots of hdd space (about 55% in use).

Unfortunately, the CPU load ist at maximum again, even though there should not run any backup script at the moment. Killing the perl or gzip processes doesn't help at all. There are new processes immediately.
The only way I could stop the heavy CPU load was to rename /usr/bin/perl and /bin/gzip. So the Backup Manager couldn't find that applications anymore. Now the CPU load is at 10% to 30%.

Here are some informations about the unstopable tasks / processes (the perl task allready used my new ftp backup space configuration, but should not start before 23:00 clock):

3786 ? S 0:00 /usr/bin/perl /opt/psa/admin/bin/plesk_agent_manager domains-id --owner-uid=e95a7d14-30a2-4cc9-8c46-2967719b83ec --dump-rotation=3 --session-path=/opt/psa/PMM/sessions/2011-10-26-132410.279 --output-file=ftp://[email protected]/ 18
