Resolved setup a Centos 6 server with Plesk

webwolf

New Pleskian
hi there,

I want to setup at home a 'backup server' with Plesk
It should be Centos 6, because my production servers are also.Centos 6 servers.
My question is: is it enough to install a minimal server - without web, database and mail servers... and does Plesk install these... or should i choose a different approach?

Cheers,

Wiebe
 
Plesk will install the needed requirement.

Not sure how good a backup server would be without the appropriate software to utilize it...

Can you explain a little more what you’re looking to do?
 
I don't know what you mean by 'without the appropriate software to utilize it'?
Maybe it is a false sense of security, but it would feel good to have an exact copy of the server running at home.
 
Maybe I read your initial message incorrectly.... It sounds like you were wanting to backup the data without any applications being on the server but now that I read it again it sounds like you are asking about doing a minimal distro install. That's actually what I always do - It will work just fine with the Plesk installer handling the rest.
