• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Plesk Migration Manager

Hello,

Any Comments/Problems/precaution using Plesk Migration Manager ?

Is it Safe to Migrate using Plesk Migration Manager?

I have followed below steps;

1. Upload migration agent. For Plesk it is /usr/local/psa/PMM/PleskX.pl somewhere on the source server.
2. Run it with --help option to get information how to use this script.
3. Then copy the files from ./pma directory from the source server to /usr/local/psa/PMM/archives on the

destination Plesk.
4. Copy PleskX.xml to /usr/local/psa/PMM/var on the destination server and rename it to dump.xml.

Confirm is it SAFE to use Step 5. for Final Migration to New Server ?

5. Then you can migrate data via Plesk on Server->Migration page in "Import mode".

AFAIK, there is no cases when something went wrong with final case: it only creates new objects, not touching existing.

And, you need not only PleskX.xml, but also other files in the directory: those which are archives with .tar.gz.aa and similar. They are need to be copied to /usr/local/psa/PMM/archives

Those files contain all content of your old server: httpdocs, mail, ftp content and so on.
