Problems with Backup to FTP repository

Fritz MichaelG

Basic Pleskian
I have tried to use the option to store scheduled backups in a remote FTP repository. This is scheduled to run every month... and every month it is killing the server.

  • The Backup itself runs fine. The archive is created and then uploaded to the remote FTP repository.
  • This takes a long time however, since the internet connection of the remote FTP server is not that fast.
  • After the upload is finished, the Backup Task never goes away
    • Under Tools & Settings > Backup Manager > Current Backup Task the task is still there and stays at 100%. It never goes away
    • When I reboot the server, Plesk will notify that the backup task has failed (even though it was finished) and start all over again.
    • This will go on and on and never stop. Sometimes, due to maintenance, I may have to reboot again, and then it will start another backup process and slow the server down.

Currently, it runs the backup again. How can I completely cancel the procedure? Last time I messed around and killed all relevant processes and somehow Plesk never started another backup again. But theres must be a better way?
