Question WPTookit Backup upload to remote FTPS storage

embrem

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
AlmaLinux 8.7 x86_64
Plesk version and microupdate number
Plesk Obsidian 18.0.49.2
hello all,

we use wp-toolkit backups quite often in addition to regular scheduled plesk backups, which are set to use remote FTPS storage only. space gets filled up after a while by wptoolkit backups, unnecessarily inflating the domain backup size as well as taking up precious ssd space.

is there a setting to move wptoolkit backups to an FTPS storage on a regular basis? if not, maybe someone has a bash script handy for a cronjob to do the trick?

plesk obviously uses FTPS to upload backups off-site, however, the only ftp package installed seems to be:

rpm -qa | grep ftp
psa-proftpd-1.3.7e-2.redhat.8+p18.0.49.2+t230110.1619.x86_64

which, if i see it right, is an ftp server, not a client. i've yet to figure out the command plesk uses to upload the backups via FTPS. i'm reluctant to add other software packages / ftp clients if not necessary.

any ideas? appreciate the input

cheers,
