  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Testing backups

I was recently asked to test the integrity of Plesks (8.6) internal backup system.

So, I downloaded a new install of 8.6 and installed it on a freshly installed Windows box. When I wanted to the import the backup it complained i need needed 8.6.5 or higher, which I couldn't find in the list of downloads.

So I downloaded version 9 to test my backups on, but before I can restore it, I need to enter the license key.

Where do I get the key and if I can't, do I have to buy a new one for this test? Can I get a 5 day trial key or something similar so I can test if our server is recoverable in case of an emergency?

Thanks

Wayne
