• 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.

What is backed up?

When a domain backup is done via the Backup utility in the plesk web control panel, what information is actually backed up? Does this backup only backup domain details and files? or does it back databases associated with the domain too?
 
In previous versions of Plesk, it backs up the entire domain including the associated databases also. I have not upgraded to 8.1 yet, but I would guess it operates the same.
 
It backups databases too. If you interesting in what's in backup you may use backup-unpack utility.

# psa/bin/backup-unpack list <backup_file>
