  • 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.

Moving license from Plesk 10 to 11

New Pleskian
Hello,

I am migrating from a Debian 5 server with Plesk 10.4.4 to Debian 7.5 and Plesk 11.5.30

The new server is fully set up with a trial license and the old server is still online. I only need to move the license. I have read (http://kb.parallels.com/en/5406) that the license file can simply be copied to the new server but that using the administrative panel to do this is highly recommended. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to do this within the panel.

My questions:

1. Is the license file location the same for Plesk 11.5 as for Plesk 10?
2. Are there any restrictions on the key regarding version or source IP? In other words, if I manually copy the license file /etc/sw/keys/keys/keyXXYYZZ from the old server to the new server (and restart plesk) will the key be recognized?
3. Do I need to deactivate the old key in anyway for the new one to become active? I will be decommissioning the old server once the process is complete.

Thanks.
