Question

How to enable/disable backup management for the subscription via CLI?

Answer

Note: the subscription will be locked and will not be synced with the service plan after executing the below commands. 

1. Connect to the server via SSH or RDP

2. The backup permissions for the subscription can be set via
plesk bin subscription_settings
command. For example, this command will enable the ability to create a local subscription backup for the owner of the "example.com" subscription:

   # plesk bin subscription_settings -u example.com -allow_local_backups true

   This command will deny such permission:

   # plesk bin subscription_settings -u example.com -allow_local_backups false

   And this command will grant the permission to create a subscription backup which will be stored on the remote FTP server:

   # plesk bin subscription_settings -u example.com -allow_ftp_backups true

Refer to the following documentation page for more information - Hosting Subscription Settings

The same settings can be set for the service plan, in order to update the permissions for all subscriptions assigned to it. For example, to enable such permission:

# plesk bin service_plan -u "Plan 1" -allow_local_backups true

To disable:

# plesk bin service_plan -u "Plan 1" -allow_local_backups false
