• Debian 11 is approaching its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.80 will be the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Remote backup over SSH

Hi all,

Because I don't use PLSK backup manager, we find out a small linux command line what can help a lot of people to make backup over SSH.

tar cvz foldername | ssh [email protected] 'dd of=test_backup.tar.gz'

This will archive folder with foldername and will archive it direcctly to other server via SSH.

Example

tar cvz httpdocs | ssh [email protected] 'dd of=/backup/domainname_backup_19jan2006.tar.gz'

Hope this help someone.
Of course this can be more advanced to get all domains one by one and archive, transfer, but only httpdocs (or httpsdocs) and subdomains ...
Then can be also backup MySQL (by stopping MySQL) and if you want, need. etc/ and /qmail settings.
