Regular Pleskian
About to switch (again) to Plesk. Still some questions bug me before I finally do:
(1) Safely from a Plesk and support view. Yes of course its leading edge, yes of course its probably less stable than current CentOS LT-kernel. Still is it strongly advised against or "ok" or even strongly suggested to go for longterm stable kernel?
- Esspecially kernel 4.14x in my case (projected EOL 2020) has me - Can i safely(1) upgrade CentOS7 to 4.14x kernel on an active Plesk (most current) installation?
- I am afraid after browsing documentation I did not fully understand on how https traffic is handled in a mixed Apache/nginx configuration. While obvious in http, it is not explicitly stated for https.
- Is https communication between both servers for Apache/nginx handled like http?
- If yes to 1., is it a 1:1 assignment, aka 1nginx server block for each Apache instance or is it one "huge" nginx block as reverse proxy? Most likely it is 1:1 simply due to the letsencrypt certificates?
- Speaking about which (Lets encrypt): Do both servers (well nginx block vs Apache instance) deploy the same certificate?
- If not 3. what is deployed internally? If not letsencrypt its self-signed?
- I read about repository handling of Plesk Onyx, where the OS repositories are used. Overall remarks between support and documentation left me with a blurred impression. Bottom line: Are epel and elrepo repository supported? And if not, is another repository supported (Atomic if I recall correctly?)
