Requirements
To prepare for migration to Plesk, make sure that the source and destination servers can communicate with each other. Starting with version 12.5.30, you need to open some ports.
On Linux :
22 (TCP) for SSH
8443 (TCP) for accessing Plesk XML API on the destination server and on source servers, when migrating from Plesk
110, 143 (TCP) for POP3 and IMAP, on source and destination servers for post-migration checks
On Windows :
ports 135, 139, 445 (TCP) for migration
137, 138 (UDP) for migration
10155 (TCP) for a custom Plesk Migrator service that performs various tasks
10156 (TCP) for rsync server (migration)
1434 (TCP) and all TCP ports (or manually selected) for MS SQL, if used as a named instance
Don't forget to reduce the TTL for DNS zones to 1 hour. A low value allows clients to get DNS updates faster.
Steps to perform the migration
To ensure successful migration, you need to laos telegram phone number list Plesk Migrator . To do so, go to Extensions, open Plesk Migrator in Server Tools, or use the search bar to find the extension. Proceed by clicking Install.
Once the tool is installed, click Start to perform a new migration. Select cPanel and enter the IP address of the source server, also specify the SSH port, the login and password of the root user; proceed with “Prepare migration” to start the migration process.
Plesk Migrator will attempt to retrieve the source server data. If the connection fails, double-check the information or make sure it is not blocked by the firewall.
On the next screen, select the objects you want to include in the migration. The typical scenario is the migration of a set of subscriptions. In this case, on the “ Add subscriptions” tab you can choose the content that should be transferred (web, mail, database), and then proceed with the migration. At this stage, Plesk will perform checks to identify any issues, which should be fixed using the suggested instructions before continuing with the operation. Once the corrections are made, update the pre-migration check status and click start again.
