Server-wide backup takes up space in customer domains repository

MrWooples

New Pleskian
Hi guys - quick question...

I've setup server-wide backup on my Plesk 11 on Windows, here:
Home > Tools & Settings > Backup Manager: Server Repository > Scheduled Backup Settings.

Everything included in the backup, stored in Server Repository.

Then I noticed that if a customer has 2gb worth of data in his domain, then after my backup has run, his domain is now taking up 4gb. And after a 2nd backup has run, his domain now takes up 6gb (2gb data + 4gb worth of backups).

Is there no way that I can do server-wide backups of *everything* without taking up space for customers?

Thanks in advance for reply.
 
Just go into Tools & Settings > Server Preferences and uncheck "backup files created by the administrator" option in
"Include in the disk space usage calculation" section
 
Thank you very much - that seems like it would do the trick :)

(It was "Server Settings" though, not "Server Preferences")
