Restoring Data
To perform restoration of Plesk hosting data, you should execute the pleskrestore utility command composed so that it does the following:
- Defines the Plesk objects to be restored.
- Defines how the restore process will be performed.
- Defines conflict resolution rules and policies.
The following sections explains each component in detail.
The pleskrestore utility is located in %plesk_dir%\bin\
where %plesk_dir% is an environment variable for the Plesk installation directory. By default, it is "C:\Program Files\Parallels\Plesk\".
To see a list of the pleskrestore commands and options, refer to the section Restoration Utility Commands and Options.
If a restoration process fails, you can use its logs for troubleshooting. Each restoration process's logs are stored in %plesk_dir%\PMMlogs\restore-YYYY-MM-DD-hh-mm-nnn, where YYYY-MM-DD-hh-mm is the date and time when the restoration was performed and nnn is a randomly generated number.
