Configuring Global Backup Settings in Plesk
If you serve numerous Web sites, you may want to configure the backing up process so that it does not consume much server resources.
To reduce the server load and set the disk space usage policy:
1. Go to Home > Server group title menu > Backup Settings.
2. Specify the number of simultaneous backup processes in the Maximum number of simultaneously running scheduled backup processes box. The default value is 10. Type a lesser value.
3. Select the Run scheduled backup processes with low priority check box.
4. Select the Do not compress backup files check box to disable compression.
5. Click OK.
6. To prevent the backing up processes from consuming all available disk space on the server, do the following:
1. Access the server’s file system, locate and open the file [Parallels Plesk Panel installation directory]/admin/share/pmmcli/pmmcli-rc with a text editor.
2. Locate in this file the line FREE_DISK_SPACE 20, and in place of 20, specify the amount of free disk space in megabytes that must be reserved.
3. Save the file.
