How to disable scheduled backup tasks over the CLI?

Answer

Currently, there is no CLI tool available for such tasks.
As a workaround, you can disable it by editing the Plesk Database (psa) manually.

To do so, follow these steps:

1. Connect to the server via SSH/RDP

2. Create Plesk database backup

3. To disable the server's scheduled backup, execute the following command:

   # plesk db "UPDATE BackupsScheduled SET active = 'false' where obj_type = 'server'"

4. To disable the scheduled backups for example.com, execute the next command:

   # plesk db "update BackupsScheduled bs, domains d set bs.active="false" where
   d.id=bs.obj_id and d.name='example.com'"

5. To disable all domains scheduled backups, execute the following command:

   # plesk db "UPDATE BackupsScheduled SET active = 'false' where obj_type = 'domain'"
