Question

Is there a way to create a backup to an FTP storage without using local storage?

Answer

To back up the server to cloud storage, it is required to have additional free disk space equal to the space occupied by two largest subscriptions, rather than the amount occupied by the entire server.

Also, there is a Multivolume option for scheduled backups that allows splitting tmp backup files to a smaller parts that will save the disk space occupied by .tmp files. This way, it is required to have only twice more free size of the volume size specified in Backup Manager > Schedule https://docs.plesk.ru/display/PPP/Disk+Space+Consumption
