Package Plesk Backup from the Command Line

If you are unable to package plesk backup from plesk panel then I suggest you manually package the backup from the
command line using "%plesk_bin%\pmm-ras.exe". That is the utility that Plesk
uses internally to package backups for download. Below is the tool's usage
report followed by an example:
