• Hi, Pleskians! We are running a UX testing of our upcoming product intended for server management and monitoring.
    We would like to invite you to have a call with us and have some fun checking our prototype. The agenda is pretty simple - we bring new design and some scenarios that you need to walk through and succeed. We will be watching and taking insights for further development of the design.
    If you would like to participate, please use this link to book a meeting. We will sent the link to the clickable prototype at the meeting.
  • (Plesk for Windows):
    MySQL Connector/ODBC 3.51, 5.1, and 5.3 are no longer shipped with Plesk because they have reached end of life. MariaDB Connector/ODBC 64-bit 3.2.4 is now used instead.
  • Our UX team believes in the in the power of direct feedback and would like to invite you to participate in interviews, tests, and surveys.
    To stay in the loop and never miss an opportunity to share your thoughts, please subscribe to our UX research program. If you were previously part of the Plesk UX research program, please re-subscribe to continue receiving our invitations.

Question Why update is very very very so long

Server operating system version
Debian 10/11
Plesk version and microupdate number

Hello,

I have a server running Debian 10 with 64 GB of RAM.
On this server, only two domain names are configured and there are about 70 email accounts.

I followed the procedure to upgrade from Debian 10 to Debian 11.
No problems during the upgrade... But I spent over 5-6 hours on it.

Unpacking... unpacking... unpacking... for hours!

Why is it taking so long?

I pay for a service that provides me with an interface and some features. I've never spent so much time updating a site.

I'm very worried about updating another server that contains over 60 sites of varying sizes.

Why is it taking so long? Why is it lagging so much? I pay for five Plesk licenses through different resellers, and I'm really disappointed when I see how long it takes!

I've been managing servers for 15 years, and a dist-upgrade has never taken me so long!
 
The upgrade time isn't controllable by Plesk, as the bulk of the upgrade is Debian's own upgrade system. Plesk upgrade isn't done till near the end of the Debian upgrade.

Saying that, most upgrades I've done take up to an hour maximum.
