Question Scheduled backup retry

matbcvo

Basic Pleskian
Is it possible to configure backup system to retry after X minutes/hours when it fails to do so? I can't seem to find that option in Plesk.
Scheduled full backup sometimes fails because of temporary error (FTP server error or database is locked etc). I always have to do backup manually after I receive notification from Plesk about scheduled backup error.

There is no built-in function for that, but I think that the command line has a return code that you can use in a shell script to automatically start a new backup if it returns an error instead of 0. But you'll need to develop this script by yourself.
