• 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.

Question Temporary backup files under /var/lib/psa/dumps/ after restore

W

W4ru

Basic Pleskian
Server operating system version
Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian 18.0.74 Update 2
Scenario:
The server backups to remote storage via SFTP in 2GB chunks. Total volume of the server backup is 90GB.
When I trigger a restore of a larger subscription (40GB in the web root), the necessary files are copied to the server and the restore is performed.

After the restore is complete, the entire backup package (32GB) for this subscription remains in /var/lib/psa/dumps/.

Is there a routine that removes this automatically? If so, when and which one? I haven't found anything like this.

Manual deletion via ssh is not a problem, I just wanted to know if this is correct.
