Request a free temporary migration licence to acquire the licences as well as support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Purchase a licence at your own expense and cancel it after the migration is complete to acquire the licences without support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apply a request for the removal of a new licence after the migration is complete, and then insert the new IP address into your original licence. You&#8217;ll be able to do it later in your Client Account Area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-2\">Step 2 :<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You must add new IPs to the new server in the same way that you added new IPs to the previous server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, keep an eye on which IPs are matching and make a plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, on the new server, go to Admin Panel -&gt; IP Manager and add up all the IPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can alter the IP assignment when transferring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-3\">Step 3 :<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On the new system, you will have to go through DA in the same way as you did on the old system for the admin\/Reseller account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the Reseller\/Admin files were restored at this time, their account should be set up as a &#8220;user&#8221; account..<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is why they must first create an account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After you&#8217;ve created each Admin\/Reseller, go to Admin Panel -&gt; IP Manager and assign each one the IPs they&#8217;ll need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-4\">Step 4 :<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Return to the old server, log in as Admin\/Reseller of (each of them), then navigate to their Reseller Panel, followed by Manage User Backups. Select all accounts and create local backups of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is preferable to create a local backup before transferring the files to the new computer. Select all accounts and create local backups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the backup files in the above-mentioned space while uploading them to the new server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure your firewalls are configured correctly. To upload to the same Reseller, use the FTP function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the backup files in<strong> \/home\/reseller\/user-backups.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Place the backup files in the above-mentioned space while uploading them to the new server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ascertain that the admin\/reseller is the owner of the user-backups directory, and that the backup files in the directory are chmod 755.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The newest option for Reseller Level Backups will be Admin Level -&gt; Admin Backups\/Transfer. Then there&#8217;s the matter of restoring the Admins and Resellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-5\">Step 5 :<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For Admin\/Reseller, you must now take on the new server (for each of them).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To begin, log in and navigate to Reseller Panel, then Manage User Backups. Restore all of the accounts on the list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re allocating separate users to different IP addresses, for example, perform one restoration per IP along with any user(s) you&#8217;re restoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re restoring one person to his own shared IP, on the other hand, you&#8217;ll need to do so without any other users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat the restoration process until the process is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-6\">Step 6 :<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, Restore the Process for the Reseller level configuration that will be copied manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Copy the content of the Reseller&#8217;s packages for copying<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\/usr\/local\/directadmin\/data\/users\/reseller\/packages\/*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\/usr\/local\/directadmin\/data\/users\/reseller\/packages. list and the identical settings to the new server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reseller must now re-configure any nameserver settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reseller must now re-configure any nameserver settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Need expert help with DirectAdmin to DirectAdmin Migration?<br>Our team provides reliable and secure migration Services to ensure a smooth transfer of your websites, emails, databases, and configurations with zero data loss and minimal downtime.
