What is the easiest way to migrate from VestaCP to myVesta

[bfcrew]

Hi dpeca,

I have one server which still using VestaCP and I wanted to migrate to myVesta.
What is the easiest way to migrate if this server are using CentOS?
Or maybe should I just install myVesta from scratch and import the MySQL databases?

Thanks,
bfcrew

• On CentOS, as root, run: v-backup-users
• Copy files from /backup to some remote server
• Install myVesta
• Create /backup folder
• Backups files from remote server copy to /backup folder on myVesta server
• On myVesta server, as root, run: v-restore-user UsernameOfAccount UsernameOfAccount.2020-06-20_01-10-02.tar (of course use proper username and filename that exists)

Much appreciated for the fast response.

Advice: don't kill old server before you bring everything on new.
Or, if it's cloud, please make snapshot of old server before you kill it.

I saw situations where people got corruptred backups because there was no free space on old server to make full backup.
They didn't noticed that (they didn't check /usr/local/vesta/log/backup.log) and killed server with thinking that everything is in backup files.
They had supprise when they tried to restore them on new server

Ah I see, thanks for the advice.
Yes it is in a cloud, I'll make a snapshot before doing this.
