• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Restoring Plesk Server Backup

altec_lansing

Basic Pleskian
Hi,
I did a backup with
/usr/local/psa/bin/pleskbackup server --output-file=/backups/server_backup.tgz

After that i deleted some mail accounts and users and changed some file content, stuff like that, for testing the backups solution.

Restoring with:
/usr/local/psa/bin/pleskrestore --restore /backups/server_backup_28_10_2011.tgz -level server -suspend -license

does not restore everything the way it was right before creating the backup.
The files i deleted are restored and so do sql tables.
But files i've edited are NOT restored.
After reading through the manual i'd say it's because of pleskrestore is not overwriting anything.

Having this as a standard behavior is ok, but how do i change that?
I know i have to add
-conflicts-resolution
to
/usr/local/psa/bin/pleskrestore
and right after that a file that describes the conflict resolution policies.

But what does that look like??
I want plesk to overwrite everything (and btw. to delete everything, that is NOT part of the backup)!

Thanks in advance,
altec
