Migrate from VHCS2 on Server 1 to ispCP on Server 2 - DaSilva - 02-20-2008 05:44 PM
I want to migrate from my old server to a new one.
The old server is using VHCS2 2.4.8 RC1 and the new should run with ispCP RC4.
Server 1 uses Debian Etch i386 package and the new server should run with the Debian Etch AMD64 package.
What must I do to migrate all customers from server 1 to server 2 (incl. webs, mails, databases and passwords)?
Do I have to install VHCS2 2.4.8 RC1 on server 2 for the upgrade script or only some specific files?
I want to keep all passwords from server 1.
What must I do to migrate all the stuff mentioned above and all settings to the server 2?
Thanks for help!

Did you try the search?
RE: Migrate from VHCS2 on Server 1 to ispCP on Server 2 - DaSilva - 02-20-2008 06:07 PM
Yes, but the only thing I found was http://www.isp-control.net/documentation/start/upgrade/vhcs .
But this does not give me the information I need.
Every thread or documentation I know is written for an upgrade from VCHS2 to ispCP on the same server but I want to upgrade from VHCS2 on server 1 to ispCP on server 2 without installing VHCS2 on server 2 so I need to know which files are needed from server 1 on server 2 to use the upgrade script.
Thanks for help.

Maybe no one has done this before

you need the vhcs2 database and the vhcs2 folders in /etc and /var/www/vhcs2 ... but i think you get some problems with system user and also sasldb2 ...
maybe you need to copy the vhcs user and groups into passwd and groups ... but you can try it on testing maschine first ...

and also copy the virtual folders to the new server (/var/www/virtual and /var/mail/virtual).
but best would be: make a test run

The upgrade script should contain which files are needed for an upgrade but because I cannot script something I would like to see someone else who can look at it and tell me which files I need for the script.
I will post my tests and perhaps after a successful run you can add the information to the upgrade script readme.

the most important things are: the vhcs.conf and the database...
RE: Migrate from VHCS2 on Server 1 to ispCP on Server 2 - DaSilva - 02-21-2008 06:25 AM
You mean the database.sql in /etc/vhcs2/database ?
Must I copy all the needed files from server 1 to server 2 in the same directory structure or everything in one folder and then I can specify where the upgrade script should search for them?

no, I mean the database named vhcs or whatever.
The database in mysql - you'll have to dump it and import it...
