The post #6 reasons why you need to update Plesk now appeared first on Plesk.
The cPanel backup system provides lots of flexibility, and one of its awesome features is the ability to create custom backup transports. In cPanel, a backup transport or destination is a method to move backups to a secondary/remote server for safe keeping. The custom backup transport feature allows you to specify a script which the backup system will pass arguments to; arguments common with uploading files in FTP, e.g. ‘put $filename’. Reading over the documentation, …
The following improvement has been made:
[*] Administrators can now set a server-wide limit on the number of scheduled backups that can be stored in one repository. The limits of all subscriptions and accounts are reduced to the server-wide value, if such a value is specified. The newly created subscriptions and accounts will have the specified limit by default. Users cannot set a greater limit than the server-wide one. (PPP-10831)
The following issues have been resolved:
[-] If users logged in using rsession, the Plesk interface language was English, even if these users previously selected another language in Interface Settings. (PPP-11069)
[-] (Linux) In Plesk 12.0, temporary backup files were stored in /tmp by default. This could cause the server not to respond if the size of backup files was bigger than the size of the directory. Temporary backup files are now stored in /usr/local/psa/PMM/tmp. (PPP-11008)
[-] (Linux) After the user had enabled the Atomic rule set for ModSecurity (web application firewall), ModSecurity (web application firewall) stopped working. (PPP-11007)
[-] Users could not restore the default DNS zone settings for domain aliases. The Restore the DNS Zone form did not appear. (PPP-10974)
[-] (Linux) Plesk installed on OpenVZ containers could not be configured after the upgrade to 12.0 because of the missing directory /dev/shm. (PPP-10830, PPPM-1655)
[-] (Linux) The Awstats statistics of the last day of the month was calculated incorrectly. (PPP-8850, PPPM-1486)
