I'm running a backup of a subscription and I checked "Create a multivolume backup" and set the "volume size" to 1024. Once the backup is complete the backup still shows as 1 volume, not broken up into 1 GB pieces.
Since upgrading to v12* I have had issues backing up to my FTP repo, the errors are limited but how to come over it?I have searched and checked all common issues, space on drive, space on destination etc.
I'm migrating sites from Plesk 9 to Plesk 12 using the migration manager. Since the migration manager doesn't migrate backups, are the backups compatible between Plesk 9 and Plesk 12? If so, is there an easy way to copy the backups in the correct directory structure since we are forced to use clients in plesk 12 and it changes the directory structure of the backups folders.
I've been running a Plesk server with around 100 domains for years and years now. I've always used a backup service provided by the server vendor, but with a new server, I wanted to consider some of the backup options built into Plesk.
1. It looks like Plesk/Acronis is dead or only for Windows. Is that right?
2. If I add a backup drive to the server, can I setup Plesk Backup Manager to store the backups there (instead of on the main RAID array)?
3. Are there any other 3rd party extensions that I should consider?
we are getting the following error message during our scheduled backup..Warning: mysql "wordpress_9"...Not all the data was backed up into /mnt/backup/web03/domains/domain.com.au/databases/wordpress_9_1 successfully. Use of chdir('') or chdir(undef) as chdir() is deprecated at /opt/psa/PMM/agents/shared/Storage/Bundle.pm line 39.

I set up a FTP backup repository today however when attempting to restore selected objects from the backup there are a couple of messages that state:
"Restore the backup file despite a corrupted signature"
"You can select objects to restore only when you are restoring from backups that were created in Plesk 12.0 or later."
I noticed that the backup residing in the FTP repository has a .tar extension whilst the one I did in the server repository has a .xml extension.
Restoring selected objects from the server repository works fine.
Why is this not possible? I'd like to restore selected objects from the FTP repository. Otherwise I'll have to transfer the backup file from FTP repository to the server which is really inefficient.
Have some very important questions regarding changing plesk ports and creating full backups.
1. When changing plesks port number, what exactly will it effect? Will it effect auto updates, etc.?
2. When creating a backup, I'd like to backup the entire server to rollback at anytime when changes are made to core files, is this possible?
3. With backups, somehow I'd like to schedule backups to possibly make nightly copies to an external hard drive on my computer for a fail safe method just in case the server happens to crash and I'd need to restore to another server/service. How would this be possible?
We had many backups stored on our Plesk 12 server about 51 GB in total.
After reducing the backups back to 10 GB by removing old backups through the Backup Manager.
The issue is that Health Monitor still reported that there was low diskspace displayed by color yellow. And it look Health Monitor over 16 minutes to change the alarm level from Yellow to Green
However the statistics at the specific subscription still present the Backup usage of 51 GB's whilest they are no longer there.
What can i do about this in order to speed up the synchronization?
I too had a very bad experience with this hosting too!
The host is not stable at all! I scheduled an hourly cron job there and it executed a couple of times and then totally stopped! I set up the cron job to make my life easier, not to give me more burden.
For our community of it professionals, we have been using the package mentioned in the openingspost for several months now. We have been very happy with the connectivity of Fliehe & Schwab, and the price they provide. For instance connection to the USA and many places around europe has proven to be fantastic.
Response is often personal and very professional, they have an anwser ready to all your questions within a very short time (think minutes!).
I have recommended an acquintance to them, and he shares the opinion. If you are looking for a decent vps provider in europe, look no further.
Does anyone know of companies that offer split-shared hosting?
I came across this concept from viewing a post titled 'crucial hosting'. They are a company that offers this.
Apparently they split a server into logical sections and the user operate within this section. They gave a write-up on their advantages here
[url]
But one thing they do is to allow adult sites.
Hence my question #1: will adult sites result in overusage of resources in such types of 'split' environment?
And question #2: are there other companies that offer 'split' environment (i searched in google, yahoo and msn but could not find any)
And question #3: the cost is quite close to a low-end VPS. Won't it be more effective to go for a VPS instead since in addition to reduced number of users, there is also guaranteed ram?
Would it be possible to split website components transparently across 2 servers and make it look like a single site? For example: run a forum on ServerA and a wiki on ServerB, but with the same base URL? Doing this will allow me to buy smaller servers instead of a single huge server.
I am interested in the options to split a dedicated server so one might offer a selection of VPS containers and also a selection of cPanel packages.
Is there a free package that I can install on a Linux box to allocate resources for VPS alongside a cpanel/whm installation or would cpanel have to be installed on one of the vps containers?
What sort of response might I get if I split a box like this or should I have 2 seperate servers one with cpanel/whm and the other with a VPS splitting solution...
I do wanted to know if there is any option to program plesk, so that it does separately backups of all sites instead of doing a globally backup of all things in one file.
I do not mind that people an synchronize their account with one of their ftp servers to do backups but what I do want is me also to do backups of all sites separately.
One of my clients needs a dedicated server. I already know SoftLayer is really good from personal experience, but he needs both a Managed box and a Backup Solution, neither of which SoftLayer offers. I know they offer a 1Gig lockbox, but it's your responsibility to make sure files are transferred daily.
Basically what he needs is the following
- Server 2003
- As fully managed as possible because I am not on hand 24/7
- A control panel to handle everything. Plesk and Helm work. I'd say Plesk since they now seem to own HELM
- A backup solution at the very least once a week, once a day is better
- 24/7 Technical support with a phone number to call (not just ticket) in case of emergency.
Please let me know any suggests of hosts you use that were good. I have used many hosts in my life but only really liked SoftLayer (lacking the 2 features said) and AxisHost (no live number) so really need some feed back on this.
I've an issue when i tried to create a backup repository by the client control panel, The backup already created but it's not affected on the client disk space !!
It's put in Crogram Files/Paralles/Plesk/Backup/reseller/resellername/clients/domain.com
Now, I have critical disk space usage because the one client has schedule daily backups and it's not affected on his account usage!!
1- I've check for permissions and repair plesk database. 2- I've make repair quota. 3- Updated plesk
