I think there is enough information as an answer to your question.

Thank you, that does clear up some of my concerns. My main concern which I have yet to clear up is that of backups and more importanly the restoration of these backups when needed!
However my situation may be further complicated by the fact that my plesk hosting is done with 1&1 who seem to image servers with differing releases of Linux and differing Plesk versions.

Thanks
Mike
