Question
- What are the Plesk Daily Maintenance tasks used for?
Note: Daily email notifications related to the execution of this script are sent to server administrator periodically and they always mention one of the following files:
Windows Server OS: %plesk_dir%adminplibDailyMaintainancescript.php
Debian-based Linux OS: /opt/psa/admin/plib/DailyMaintainance/script.php
RHEL-based Linux OS: /usr/local/psa/admin/plib/DailyMaintainance/script.php
Answer
The Plesk Daily Maintenance script is a script that launches Plesk Daily Maintenance tasks (once per day).
The tasks that are performed when this script is launched are tied to various very important maintenance-related operations within Plesk, such as:
- Checking for Plesk updates
- Installing updates
- Updating license keys
- Calculating Statistics
- Updating application catalog cache
- Log rotation
The mentioned operations can also be launched separately. See the following articles for details:
