• 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.

Upgrade best practices?

I'm looking to update PHP 4.3.9 to 5.x and thought I may as well upgrade to Plesk 8.6 at the same time (Think I'll wait a few more point releases before jumping to 9).

I will be following the atomic turtle wiki to run the yum updates.

Should I run the plesk update first or the atomic turtle updates?

Also when updating Plesk is it a good idea to upgrade incrementally or is it safe to just jump to the required version?

Also I am not entirely sure how to create a full server backup in case the worst happens. The best backup solution I have been able to use so far has been via the plesk panel backing up each client seperately and then downloading through the browser is there an easier way? The backup option found in virtuozzo is not an option as no backup server is set up.

Thanks in advance
