Plesk backup with a 3d party tool

Hello
I am new to linux and Plesk.
I need to setup a backup for a web server that i host for a friend of mine.

I want to use a third party software called Atempo Time Navigator in order to backup Plesk configuration, Apache & Horde configuration and web site's files & database.

Does anyone know where are located the directories that i should copy?
Regards
 
I use rdiff-backup myself, the main directories you want are:

/var/qmail/mailnames (this is all user mail)
/var/www/vhosts (web site content)
/var/lib/mysql (mysql dbs)

I grab the whole server with rdiff-backup, and maintain 90 days worth of incrementals for rollbacks.
