• The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Hi! I've read numerous articles/docs on using "pleskrestore" command. Most refer to a simple, single file, such as mydomain.zip.

I have a full /var/lib/psa/dumps/domains directory for a series of domains rescued from a prior server.

I wasn't sure how to match the pleskrestore command given a source directory of dozens of files, due in part for daily/incremental backups.

I feel the solution is right under my nose but wasn't quite sure how to accomplish a restore from CLI.

Example directory contents:

(info)
Code:
-rw-r----- 1 dev psacln     31735 Nov  4  2022 backup_info_2211030004_2211040004.xml
-rw-r----- 1 dev psacln     31935 Nov  5  2022 backup_info_2211030004_2211050004.xml
-rw-r----- 1 dev psacln     31935 Nov  6  2022 backup_info_2211030004_2211060004.xml

(tzst)
Code:
-rw-r----- 1 dev psacln 168126654 Nov  4  2022 backup_user-data_2211030004_2211040004.tzst
-rw-r----- 1 dev psacln        34 Nov  5  2022 backup_user-data_2211030004_2211050004.tzst
-rw-r----- 1 dev psacln        34 Nov  6  2022 backup_user-data_2211030004_2211060004.tzst

I gather the timestamp is key, e.g. backup_info_2211240004 for 2022/11/24.

But, I wasn't sure of 'pleskrestore' wanted the base info .xml file as input, or something different. Thanks!
