Moving Accounts
Aug 31, 2008I have an account with a shared web host and I use that account to host 9 website under 9 different domains. All the domains are hosted as add-on domains under that single shared cpanel account. Now I would like to do a WHM account transfer from the shared hosting to my own VPS server. But I want all my domains to have its own private cpanel accounts.
Is this possible with the WHM automated account transfer feature? or do I have to create cpanel accounts for each domains in my VPS and upload the files manually?
Cpanel Moving Accounts
Jun 28, 2009i have a dedicated server. Centos 5.3 /Cpanel
2 reseller accounts on it: acc1 and acc2.
acc1 has ns1.domain.tld and ns2.domain.tl nameservers set up
acc2 has ns3.domain.tld and ns4.domain.tl nameservers set up
now i want to move an account (customer.tld) from acc2 to acc1 without downtime.
how can i do this provided i can not have customer.tld both on acc1 and acc2 on the same server?
here's what i did:
1. changed customer.tld nameservers to have ns1.domain.tld, ns2.domain.tld, ns3.domain.tld, ns4.domain.tld then waited for 48 hours for the changes to propagate
2. changed the customer.tld owner in WHM from acc2 to acc1
3. changed the cpanel package from acc2_package ti acc1_package
4. changed the IP in WHM for the account from ns3 IP to ns1 IP
5. changed the DNS entries in WHM ns3 changed to ns1 on all instances found there
but i still have a downtime period now. everything looks fine in httpd.conf thou

Dec 16, 2008What is the best way to move Frontpage accounts from one server (non-cp) to another (Cpanel or Plesk)?
I understand that using FTP may corrupt the FP server extensions; is rsync an option, or should the client always upload files to the new server from their FP software?
Is there any way to connect to a new server account (using FP) via the IP; before pointing the domain to the new server?
Moving Accounts (cPanel/WHM)
Aug 13, 2007I am moving my accounts soon from my VPS which I have root access to and was wondering if anyone could tell me what I need to do, to the DNS.
As last time I did this I had to edit the DNS Zone, by editting one of the following: refresh , retry , expire , minimum ttl but can not remember which one or to what.
Then I changed the IP address to the new server.
Cannot Bring Up Any Sites After Moving All Accounts To New Servers
Oct 21, 2007We recently moved all our hosting accounts from our servers to new servers with a new host. In the process of this move, after moving all the domains and setting the nameserver ips to the new ips, none of the sites are pulling up. I changed the ip for all nameservers to the ones provided to me by the new host but we cannot figure out why the sites are not pulling up, he says everything on his end is fine? Talking about 100+ clients who have been down for over a day now after changing the nameservers and cannot figure out whats going on. All we did was set the ips on my current nameservers to the new ips below.
Now they are claiming they can bring the sites up, but none of the clients I have talked to can bring them up. Also I cannot bring up any domains or ping them from my home or work.
Example domains that are not working that were moved:
bluetongueskinks.net
pokemongamesnow.com
The 204.16.247.150/~username works fine.
See 204.16.247.150/~pokemon
The accounts transferred over fine in WHM. We were using a dns redirect in WHM on the old server before changing nameservers to make sure it pulled them all up fine.
ips for the nameservers 204.16.247.150 and 204.16.244.150.

Moving Server / Dns
Mar 18, 2007I am moving all my accounts from one server to another, i have cpanel/whm. Now the first question is whats the best and easiest way to transfer them? I have tried to use copy multiple account from whm and that works fine except that dns records are from old server, that is nameservers! Is there a way to transfer account but also update to new nameserver or i just have to use whm to transfer multiple account at once and then change zones one by one?
Another thing i came up is that i move accounts, leave the same dns as in old server and just change ips of those nameserver on domain to point to a new server namerserver ips?
Moving From Server To Another
Dec 14, 2007I just moved from server to another new one all went well apart from one domain.
The domain has its own nameservers registered with godaddy the problem is, i can access the site normally only if I didnt put www with it
means I only can access if its [url]
Also, the emails associated with this domain name is not working, doing email trace through WHM results of getting that my emails are still going to the old server.
I did double check the DNS zone and everything cant find where's the issue,
Moving Domain Name Server (DNS) ...
Aug 26, 2008I'm trying to move sites from one cPanel server to another. Presently, I am using the clustered DNS option in WHM to keep the two servers DNS in sync, which has allowed me to avoid messing with switching name servers for domains as I moved them. Now, I'm looking to turn off the original server, but that server is the one hosting the name servers that most of the domains use (ns1 and ns2.serverforest.com).
I'd like to move those name servers over to the new server, which I presume is as simple as re-registering them in the control panel over at my registrar. However, I presume I also need to bind IPs on the new server to the original DNS names. However, if I do that and the DNS cluster syncing occurs, won't that mess things up while I await the registrar making the changes? Do I need to turn off clustering before making the switch?
Is there a way to do this seamlessly?
Also, for testing purposes I created ns3 and ns4.serverforest.com on the new server. If I now want to move over ns1 and ns2, can I set them on the same two IPs that ns3 and ns4 "own" without any trouble?

View 3 Replies View RelatedMoving Domain To New Server - Imap?
Jan 30, 2009We have a client who has a site currently hosted with some guys in germany. I cannot speak german, so am unable to chat to the support there, so thought I would ask here.
We are wanting to move their site to new hosts, as we are re-developing it for them, and their current setup does not suit our needs.
The only issue I am not too sure about is the following:
They rely heavily on their email (what company doesnt nowadays?), and they currently have IMAP acounts. They use thunderbird on a Mac for all their emails, so all their mail would presumably be on their machines.
No, if I moved their email accounts, would all the emails be deleted from their Thunderbird on their Macs? I know they wouldnt for POP, but I have only ever dealt with POP, nt IMAp.
If they will get deleted, what is the best way for me to handle this?
How Many Hits Should I Have Before Moving To A Dedicated Server
May 2, 2009I have a drupal based site. The front page is about 200kb and I have 10 trimmed topics in front page. Currently the site is hosted on a shared server. My question is how many hits or page loads per hour/minute should I have before it would be necessary to switch to a dedicated server?
My host is hostgator.

Moving A E-mail Account To Another Server
Dec 11, 2007I want to migrate a customer from his current host to a new one. The website is the easy part, site migrations are not a problem for me.
The hard part is the email. I can re-create the account, but what about the messages stored in the old server? How do I move them? How do I get all the stuff and copy it into a shared account controlled by CPanel? I think the other server uses Plesk, which uses to be a pain in the ***.

Moving Domain To Home Server
Oct 15, 2007I am moving my domain to my home server. I went to remove it from WHM and saw this option: Keep Dns Zone (needed if you have moved a domain between servers in the same dns trust relationship, and wish to remove the old domain).
I am running my own BIND server on my home pc.
Moving Main Domain To Another Server
Nov 26, 2007I have my main domain (domain.com) and it is where all my sites and customer sites are pointed to (ns1.domain.com and ns2.domain.com).
I just purchased a VPS and have made (domain.com) my main domain as I want it to be because of keeping the nameservers the same for my clients.
My vision is this, I will transfer all the sites from my old cPanel account to my new DirectAdmin account. I have setup a time to let my clients know not to update any content on their sites. At that time I will then download the sites from the cPanel account to the DA account. I will then move my main domain (domain.com) over as well and then change the name server registries at namecheap.
I understand some things can get lost in this switch, but ALL clients are aware of this and understand. They will still have access to the old server via the IP address to check for misdirected mail.
Is this the simplest way to get this done?
Is there a better way, with using the main domain?
What Domain Name Server (DNS) Changes To Make When Moving Hosts?
Mar 10, 2008I have example.com as a reseller account hosted on a shared server. I have ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com on that server and client domains use these nameservers.
I want to move to a VPS for more control and so I have acquired vps.example.com. This also has vps_ns1.example.com and vps_ns2.example.com with it.
Can I move everything to the VPS? Assuming that I move the files over, if I simply changed the DNS of example.com to point to nameservers vps_ns1(and 2).example.com, what would happen?
Have I made it over complicated for me to understand, and it's actually a lot easier than I think? Or have I shot myself in the foot by using vps.example.com as the name for the VPS?
I am using cPanel/WHM for both servers.
Moving To A New Server, Don't Wanna Lose Email
Apr 3, 2008I'm migrating some accounts to a new server. So the dns will also change with it.
I want to ensure no email is lost in the process. Here's how I plan on tackling it, and I'm hoping you can offer suggestions:
1. Create all mail accounts on the new server.
2. Each person who has an account does the following in their respective desktop email applications:
a. Create a new mail account and use the IP of the new server instead of the domain name.
b. After a few days, update the IP to the domain name, and delete the old mail account.
Will this ensure no email is lost?
One other question:
What about the case where one of the sites has data updated each day? How to properly move this to a new server, without getting the database out of sync?
