  • Plesk 8.x for Linux/Unix

RESOLUTION

To do this follow the steps below:

1. Upload migration agent and all it's modules to the source server. For example for Plesk, there are two
folders: /usr/local/psa/PMM/agents/shared and /usr/local/psa/PMM/agents/PleskX. Use the command like:

scp -r /usr/local/psa/PMM/agents/shared/* /usr/local/psa/PMM/agents/PleskX/* root@source:/DESTINATION_FOLDER/


2.Run migration agent (PleskX.pl) with --help option to get information
how to use this script, make dump with options you need. When
dump finished you get dump description file 'dump.xml' and 'pma' folder with archives in the
current directory.


3. Copy dump.xml to /work_dir/ on the destination server.


4. Copy all other files from the current directory (you run PleskX.pl in) to /work_dir/archives/ on the destination Plesk server.


5. Then you can import data via Plesk CP. Select "Import mode" on
the Server->Migration page and specify "Working directory" where you
put all data.
