When restoring a backup on Plesk 12, the error below is generated for some sites and the sites are only partially restored. Although the message talks about disk space, there is in fact plenty of free disk space - i.e. many GB. The backup was created on Plesk 11.5. The restore on Plesk 11.5 works.
I noticed that all the failed domains exceed the disk space allowed by their Service Plan. However, the 'Overuse is allowed' setting is selected. Strangely, I tried changing the Service Plan and retrying the backup and restore, and the same errors were generated.

Whenever I am trying to take backup through Parallels Plesk (Plesk version:12.0.18 Update #53) getting an error "Error: Insufficient disk space for backup. "
Default backup location is '/var/lib/psa/dumps' with enough space (Near 1TB). Then why showing above error message?
Version Details: Version Parallels Plesk v12.0.18_build1200140811.16 os_CentOS 7 OS CentOS Linux 7.1.1503 (Core)
I've got a problem with one of my servers, and i dont now how to do it. I need to find a technical service that I could hire for a job.
It's a small job. I've got one server that was compromised by D.O.S. atack and taken down by hosting company they did a clean instal fedora and cpanel and said that the data would be mounted on a old drive I need to restore the webs about 30 small sites Would anyone suggest a person that could do that?
One of the local hosting providers use Parallels Automation to serve IaaS to the customers.
I have cloud server on this Provider. And i ask the support team to decrease disk size for my server.
Support engineer deny my request because: "Unfortunately, for the 'Virtual Machine' virtualization type, it is impossible to decrease size of hard drive"....
I've got a server in a local colo facility. both the facility and my server are slowly falling apart. Rather than investing in hardware and then shipping it to some location and hoping it doesn't break, I've decided to investigate VPS.
What I am finding is puzzling me. Why do providers charge so much for disk space? My current old p3-733 has a 30gb drive, I could deal with about 15gb but with some 'flex' room (i.e. a virtual drive for uncompressing files or some such). It's a personal server for me and a couple of friends, it doesn't get much traffic, I don't need a heck of a lot of bandwidth, nor anything flashy, just Ubuntu 8.04. I see places offering plenty of traffic for a decent price, yet little in the way of storage. I just don't get it.
A year ago I was here wanting to trade my class C for a dedicated server. I realize now that it would be pretty difficult for providers to do this, because if I wanted to yank my class c they'd have to renumber. But if anyone is still interested, let me know.
The root filesystem is only using 917 GB while the size is 967 GB. Where has the 50 GB gone to? CentOS tells me that the diskspace is indeed full already, so I wonder where is the disappearing space?
I get this message from the shared Apache server (I have a reseller account and host about 50 sites) where one of my sites is and it says the site is almost out of space.
I only have it at 60 megs because the site itself is about 20 to 25 megs, so this should be plenty of room.
So, I emailed my hosting company and they say it's the 'analog' web statistics folder that keeps getting bigger, n bigger causing this issue.
I told them that I only use Awstats and they said "If you don't want to use 'analog' web statistics you can delete "tmp/analog" folder"
So, my question is this...how do you delete the "tmp/analog folder"?
With a VPS account from the various VPS providers out there, you can always add more disk space to your VPS. This is done in realtime without having to take the VPS down or anything like that. What kind of storage mechanism is used for this?
Is it possible to use such a storage method on a dedicated server?
I just think it would be advantageous in some dedicated server offerings to be able to continue to add disk space to a server without having to physically replace the hard drive.
Does anyone know why Disk Space needs to be entered in both 'Clients' & 'Domains' in Plesk? I don't understand how that works... If I set up a client template and make this 250MB Disk Space, and then set up a new Client using this template... Next I attach them to my Domain template where I have given them unlimited Disk Space... What will they have 250MB or Unlimited?
I am running Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition and something is using alot of my disk space, how can I find out what folders/files are using alot of disk space (As the items may be small, but there may be lots of them).
I'm interested to know if web hosting customers would prefer unmetered disk space over metered disk space. With unmetered, you could use as much disk space as you want without worrying.
This is a poll for web hosting customers only. If you're a web host that offers unmetered hosting, I'd be interested to see your views too.
My ISP gave me the box with /usr allocated only 8G, now is 6G used. I suppose that Cpanel will take space when I create email accounts, forwarders, maybe other stuff too.
I am running a dating website and getting more and more users with every day. They can upload from 10 till 100 pictures depending of their account satatus. Server's hard disk will be full in some 5-6 months. I can not attach unlimited amount of hard disks to the same machine. What can I do in this situation?
OK so I've been in the hosting industry a very long time now and I have noticed that overselling has got more and more crazy over time. 7 years ago, 2GB of disk and 10GB bandwidth was considered overselling. Today, its common to see offers at 1000GB/1000TB.
So my question, to all you looking for web hosting, do you really think you will need all that space and bandwidth?
I'm going to let you in on a little secret. (Some might hate me for this!) Out of all my customers, 99% use less than 1GB disk and 5GB transfer.
Every hosting provider out there knows this, and will tack on a bunch of 0s to their offer to make it look more enticing . The thing is, if you aren't using the space, you aren't getting any extra value. If you come even close to the amount they offer, I am willing to bet you will be suspended faster than you can blink. This advertising tactic is very misleading and a lot of newcomers base their decision off the meaningless numbers they see. <<Snip>>
Bloggers - Think again if you believe you need anything more than 1GB of space. You could type blog posts until you are blue in the face before you come close to using 1GB(unless you incorporate a lot of videos and images)
Forum owners - Considering most forums are text based, forums use hardly any bandwidth. If you run a highly active forum, eventually you will start consuming decent amounts of disk space. However, there is no way that a shared host would allow such a forum to exist on the servers. You will be shut down before you use even a fraction of that 100gb/1000tb.
What should you consider than? If you see a host offering such impossible amounts of resources for an even more impossible price, look elsewhere. If you want a decent service, look to spend $5-10/m for a reasonable amount of disk space and bandwidth.
