Change default backup folder

What Srijan means is that it is better to use a bind mount for this instead of a soft link. You can do this similar to whats described here for www abd vmail directory:

When ISPConfig create paths, it checks for softlinks and stops the configuration process if it finds one as softlinks can be used to attack a server from within a website. But the backup dir is outside of the website so its most likely not included in that restriction.

 

If it works then it is ok. nevertheless the preferred way is a bind mount.
