    Hello,

    I saw this tutorial here : http://wiki.vpslink.com/Automate_Backup_Retrieval_with_WinSCP
    Now I know to backup my plesk servers but I still have a question.

    I want to be able to restore the copy of backup a image of my server every 24 hours. Now backing up with this method, I don't think i will be able to restore the content in future to another server if ever this server fails. As the database configs may change.

    Is there any easy way for me to back up my whole server everyday ? I have a windows home server running so I don't mind executing any script on it for backup.

    My server is running of centos 6.5 final and plesk 11.5.30.
