I don't know why restic exist in my server. In grep "restic" /var/log/dnf.log* I have found below information. I didn't remember that I have installed that solution, Is DA install restic?

I have DA in legacy license and I use rclone to tarnsfer backup to another server. BTW I have installed backuply from softculous but I don't use this solution.

Can I be able to remove restic from my DA?

@zEitEr You have right, however why backuply and softaculous have owner as root, another plugins owner is diraadmin.

chown diradmin:diradmin /usr/local/directadmin/plugins/backuply/plugin.conf

I run above command but still I can't be able to deactive this plugin. If I should change owner backuply directory to diradmin?

Either a malicious software or somebody changed ownership in a command line. You will need to find an answer on your own. Check the shell history for this, it might provide clues.

If you still want me to answer your question, I will need to access your server as root. You will be charged a fee in this case.
 
Probably I have found why softaculous and backuply have owner as root. I have installed plugins from CLI on root account.

So, can I be able to change owner both of plugins to diradmin?

You can run:

Bash: 
chown -R diradmin:diradmin /usr/local/directadmin/plugins/

but after that, you will need to run an installer of each plugin in directadmin interface. Some files of the plugins might have different user- and/or group- ownership and suid bits.
 
May I ask why you want to remove backuply? I have installed it too, but never used it so far. I ask just of curiosity.
