I know how to make backups and to transfer each client account separately, but I am just wondering if it is possible to transfer all customer accounts in WHM at once. You see, if for example I have more than 200 customers (hosting accounts) and wish to switch to another hosting company it will be difficult for me to transfer each account separately, that’s why I am asking this question. Has anyone had reseller account transfer experience?
So I've got a reseller account set up with about 71 individual accounts created under it. What's the easiest way to create a backup of the reseller account (including all accounts created under it) and send it to my new VPS? I have SSH enabled on the reseller and root access on the VPS.
Rsync seems somewhat intimidating but maybe I'm looking at it all wrong. I have limited command line experience. Maybe someone can shed some light on this for me? I'd like to have a method that I can get familiar with and re-use.

I've been doing an account transfer from another server to my server using WHM's transfer options. All was going well until I closed my browsers window by accident. I now can't get back to the progress screen and I was wondering if I just have to wait until it fully transfers, or if I have to start again?
I have sharing plan on hostgator and going to setup this domain (which i'm going to move) as secondary domain. (addon domain)
Both hosts are cpanel based. on hostgator i have ssh access, which i don't have on my current host
Have backup.tar.gz of my site, but as hostgator staff said, it isn't usefull, as domain must be setuped as secondary domain.!
The main thing is, that i need only /public_html/ directory files to move transfered to new host.
Email, subdomain, databases aliases i move manually and setup. so just now, need to tranfer only static files from /public_html/
so my question is:
As i said above i have site-backup.tar.gz file, which i move to public_html folder of hostgator account.
I know, that to restore this file, i must put in /backup/ and only after this run restore.
I'm going to do it in another way ...
-as the only files that i need are files from public_html folder -and as hostgator staff response time is more than 3-4 hours -as i understand backup.tar.gz file is archive file
What, if i put this file in any folder and run tar -xzvf? after this look where are my static files from public_html folder, and move it to their right location , and delete all other files, that i don't need ...

I have always transfered accounts from one WHM server to another without any difficulty but my new server just stalls with a timeout whenever I try to transfer any accounts from any of my two other servers.
Hopefully it will soon be resolved, however if it isn't is there a simple way of transferring accounts by ssh or what else could I do?
I'm curious, how do you all Cpanel server owners setup reseller accounts for clients? I find myself doing it this way (providing 2 static IP's, for ns1/ns2)
1. create reseller account 2. ssh > edit nameserverips and manually add ns1/ns2 to the two select IP's of choice 3. change account IP to first main static IP, in whm
Any one else do it this way, or another method? I use WHMCS also, which creates the account automatically, but I have to edit nameserverips and appy ns1/ns2 manually in whm (A dns zone) manually.
Also, I'm wanting to upgrade some of the PHP 4 / MYSQL 4 boxes to PHP 5 / MYSQL 5. Is it worth it, or not? If yes, what methods could I use to assure no side effects for some clients' scripts, or at least some method to help them should an issue arise?
I have a reseller account and one of my customers overloads server. How do hosting providers act in such situations? Will only this customer or all customers within my reseller package be suspended in this case?
still newbie question, if I use whmcs for my billing system, I see the client always start with typing in a domain, if they choose a new domain, what will I do with it? do I have to get a domain reseller account to deal with it?
I didn't know where to put this question so please forgive me if it is the wrong section.
I received an email yesterday from the abuse department of my reseller hosting saying I was overusing the resources. I asked what was causing this as my sites are small and built with cubecart.
I got a reply today asking me about something called mode.exe which is causing load and increasing limits at Average usage stats.
I have no idea what this is so can any of you tell me what it is and how I can resolve this issue as the abuse person recommended a VPS package to me which will cost me a fortune and is something I really shouldn't need for such small sites.
I currently have a series of websites hosted with HostGator. The thing is, having a series of shared hosting plans starts to add up after a while. What I was considering was purchasing a reseller account (which will save us about $15/month) and then just hosting all our websites from there, obviously, not reselling the plans, just using them internally. For the savings, it seems like a logical thing to do. When we purchased shared plans, I bought bigger plans than we need, expecting the sites to grow (which some have, others have not).
Has anyone done this? Do you suggest it? Would there be a better way than buying a reseller account (We can't afford a dedicated server quite yet)?
