Dedicated Server Transfer
Jul 10, 2009
I changed servers. It's been three days since we swapped DNS, and I have a slew of people that still can't access anything.
The thing is, the old server should have been set up to forward everyone to the new server, and it wasn't initially. This was done by the admin company by changing the "localhost" setting on the old config file for the mysql database to the new server's IP address.
So, I have people, a LOT of people, who have been unable to reach anything for the last three days. Neither old server nor new server. Nothing, zip, nada.
Yesterday, the admin company said that they had found something wrong with port 80, and had changed the settings, and we began to see some traffic, FINALLY. I though maybe we were fixed, but this morning, I still have a crapload of emails from people who can't reach anything.
This was a cPanel to cPanel swap, in the same datacenter, on the same vlan.
We're working on Day 4 here, and everyone seems to be guessing, and In get the sense that if I don't stay proactive, nothing will be resolved.
Thing is, I know just enough about this stuff to be dangerous, which is why I pay professional server admins.

have set up a server at burst.net.But burst.net said they will not transfer my data from Dreamhost.com to my new server.I think it's a bad idea to download all my data from dreamhost to my computer and then upload them to the new server.So,is there any easier way to transfer the data from Dreamhost.com to my new server at burst.net?
It seems dreamhost has no SSH and cPanel,but my server has both of them.I heard that I can use the get/mget command to do that,

why a client orders a dedicated server from Russia but then they inform us they have transferred the money from Hong Kong bank Telegraphic transfer, different person?
We really do our best to be reasonable but what is the logic behind that?

I have been looking at the offers in the Web Hosting Talk->Advertising Forums->Web Hosting Offers->Dedicated Hosting Offers forum and I cannot find any explanation for the transfer value.
When an advertiser says 10Tb Transfer (ignore case, as I've seen an advert where it is 10TB in the subject and 10Tb in the body)
Anyway, my question, is the 10Tb in bits or bytes (cannot determine from the case, already established inconsistencies here)
Also, over what period of time is the 10T bits/bytes, E.G. is is that amount of data per day, week, month, year etc.

I am planning on moving to a dedicated server from my current shared host. In my cpanel i have the options:
Generate/Download a Full Backup
Download a home directory Backup
Download a MySQL DB Backup
Download Alias/Filter Backup
I suppose a "Full Backup" would be ideal. But are these backup files only restorable by cpanel, or can I use them to successfully migrate my entire site to the dedicated server? It's running Debian with no control panel. I could install a free one if necessary.

In reference to my previous post, i want to tranfer accross 7GB of data, approximatly 80,000 files i believe it is (due to a gallery script).
It's currently on another host (on a webhosting account) which uses their own control panel which has no options but to manage databases, the only way i can see to do this is via FTP but it'll take me days. I've tried using compressing and backup scripts, but the damn execution time on the hosts server is too low to allow the files to be zipped. Are there any ways? Can i login to my VPS via SSH and anyhow pull off the files from the other hosts server?

We had some issues with old server hence we migrated some websites to another new server from our old server.
We did a backup of all existing webfiles and database from old server and transferred the same to new server, a manual transfer few weeks ago.
However, we were not able to backup our awstats logs for this domains, can someone guide how to transfer awstats from old server to new server?
We cannot perform an automated transfer from old server to new server now, is there some way we can migrate our awstats from old server to new server for this domains?

I have a vps (CPANEL)... I would like to have incoming emails for a certain cpanel account transfer to another external server (after coming thru the VPS).
I store my emails on the external server and have more space there.
The reason behind this is:
I have spamassassin on my VPS and would like to run email thru that before it delivers on the external server. I do not have the capability to install spamassassin on the external server.
Is the above possible? How can I accomplish this?

I have read some in this forum and the sites I saw linked to others seemed ok but none I've seen really gave me options on more bandwidth.
I figured I would just post what I need and my budget and see if anyone could help me out or point me in the right direction and it be a site I havn't seen before.
I am currently with another dedicated provider that I will not name but I messed up something simple (I know what it is) while trying to add an ip to the box. I submitted a ticket Friday morning at 4am EST time explaing exactly what I need done, and how to do it just so they don't have to even research it. Needless to say the ticket was not even TOUCHED all day today (Friday) and now I am told it will not be looked at until Monday. This means I am without a server for the weekend unless I want to pay a good chunk for "emergency support". I personally find this absurd and think something simple should be a phone call away.
I typed all of this out to explain why I am looking for a new server.
I need a decent (but not hard core) processor, preferably not celeron or sempron.
Atleast 1 gig of ram and 100-200 gig or so HD. The biggest thing I need is transfer, I honestly do not care if its a 10 or 100Mbps port. I need atleast 3 to 4 TB (4000 GB) of transfer.
My price range is 100-150 USD a month.

I just signed up with a new host. How long should I expect it to transfer sites through WHM? I know it depends on the size of the sites but how long does the average 100M site?

I have to move 140 domains from my old cpanel dedicated server to the new one and have root access on both.
Earlier I wanted to avoid copying unnecessary files and was thinking of creating fresh domains/emails on new server and transfering content, but then realised that it will need more than 160 hours of manual labour (including informing clients that their passwords have changed).
Please advice as to which transfer method will be best based on the following constraints:
1. 70 domains will be done one week and remaining 70 next week while both servers continue to run.
2. On the new server all domains will have different nameservers.
METHOD 1. Putting same version of WHM-stable on both servers and using its "Copy an account from old server" feature. After copying the 70 accounts (one-by-one seems to cause less issues with large sites) we change nameservers for those 70 domains over the weekend.
METHOD 2: For every account on old server use "Generate a full cp backup" and let cPanel FTP it to a dummy account on the new server. Restore on new server and change nameservers for those 70 domains over the weekend.
METHOD 3: Run "/scripts/pkgacct username" on old server, move the tar.gz file to new new server. Restore on new server and change nameservers for those 70 domains over the weekend.
METHOD 4: Reduce TTL for A records on old server. Use WHM "Copy an account" on new server. Then modify DNS on old server to point to new server IPs. Now change nameservers at Registrar.
METHOD 5: Asking my datacenter people to use rsync etc. But this will move all data together,

Are there any good software that will backup current server files and restore them on a new server?
I'm looking for full backup, that would backup all the files in less time instead of going to each account's cpanel first and downloading backup than restoring it to new server.

One of my Cpanel servers is showing heavy data transfer this month. In 6 days, it crossed 600 GB data transfer which is equal to what it did last month. Also, all the websites collectively have only consumed around 60 GB data transfer in 6 days. How do I find out what exactly is causing heavy data transfer?

I am trying to transfer Plesk 12.0.18#34 from an Ubuntu 12 server to an Ubuntu 14 server.
Using the transfer manager, I got these warnings:
The following Apache modules are not installed on the destination server: authz_default. Please install and enable these modules to prevent possible problems. The following Apache modules are disabled on the destination server: roxy_http,proxy_html,proxy,authz_groupfile,reqtimeout. Please enable these modules to prevent possible problems. The php_version 5.3 is not available on the destination server. Instead, Plesk will use the following version: 5.5. To use the same php_version as on the source server, you should turn on or install it on the destination server. 3 domain(s) will be affected.
I am a bit puzzled by the authz_default warning as it is not supported anymore on Apache 2.4.
If I override and launch the transfer, I get these errors:
PHP Notice: Trying to get property of non-object; File: /opt/psa/admin/plib/backup/Conflicts/PleskDataManager.php, Line: 173
PHP Notice: Undefined index: xx.xx.xxx.202 [IP of old server]; File: /opt/psa/admin/plib/backup/Conflicts/PleskDataManager.php, Line: 180

how to limit the amount of data transfered for a single client in a share hosting scenario using Windows 2003/2008 and NOT using a off-the-shelf control panel.
Within IIS you can limit the number of connections and throttle the transfer rate, but I don't see how to limit the amount of data transferred.
Are the Control Panels monitoring the log files and totaling the amount of data transferred or is there another way to implement data transfer limits?

I seem to keep getting this error whenever I try to uploading something thats too large.
It transfers fine for a few mins, then it stalls and eventually I get this error message.
Small files are fine since they don't take long to transfer, it just seems that I can't have a file transferring for too long.
I can actually get the damn file through but since I keep getting that error, I need to keep manually clicking on the transfer button. So it takes about 20 tries before I can finish a 30MB file. And I have a lot of files to transfer so thats very troublesome.
Does anyone know what the problem might be? I tried turning off the firewall and opening ports on my router but it still doesn't work. Using Cute FTP.
