Just did a full server backup/restore using pleskbackup and noticed these issues:
Backup command used:
/usr/local/psa/bin/pleskbackup server -s -z -v
Restore command used
/usr/local/psa/bin/pleskrestore --restore <backup repository root>/<server>.xml -level server -license -verbose
1. The restore fails because of license key fails checks on the new server (the trial license only allows 2 clients and 1 domain). You would think that if you pass in the license parameter that it would use the limits of the backed up license. (Workaround is to extract the backed up license manually and upload it to the new server through the plesk interface).
2. The web hosting settings "Use a single directory for housing SSL and non-SSL content" are not restored properly (Sites that had this option checked were not checked after the restore).
3. The SSL certificates for client interfaces were migrated but their selection was not remembered (they were all set to "default certificate").
4. The -verbose option for pleskrestore does absolutely nothing. It just sat their for two hours until it was finished. It would be good to see some type of progress report as it restores.
