98 Reviews

Die neue und verbesserte Benutzeroberfläche von Plesk Migrator enthält Funktionen, die zuvor nur in der Befehlszeilenschnittstelle verfügbar waren. Damit werden Stabilität und Effizienz von Migrationen erhöht. Sie sehen jetzt genau, was migriert wird und in welcher Phase sich die Migration befindet. Sie haben also jederzeit den Überblick. Es ist nun nicht mehr nötig, die Migration über ein Befehlszeilenprogramm durchzuführen. Mehr Details zum Ablauf und Informationen zu den einzelnen Phasen pro Abonnement. Und dies alles völlig kostenlos!

  • Mehrere Schritte innerhalb der Migration eines Abonnements: Vorprüfung (Softwarekompatibilität), Prüfung nach der Migration (prüft, ob die wichtigsten Abonnementdienste nach Abschluss der Migration am Zielort verfügbar sind), Synchronisierung der Abonnementdaten, Objektsynchronisierung (im Fall von Änderungen auf dem Quellserver während der Migration).
  • Detaillierter Warteschlangenstatus für Abonnements, die für die Migration ausgewählt wurden, mit Hinweis auf die laufende Migration für alle ausgewählten Abonnements.
  • Mehrere neue hilfreiche Funktionen: Abonnements vor Beginn der Migration einem anderen Client/Reseller/Paket bzw. einer anderen IP auf dem Zielserver zuordnen.
  • Funktion "Migration beenden": Beendet die Migration aller Abonnements, die mit der Migration begonnen haben.
  • Einfacher Modus: Ermöglicht die Massenmigration vieler Abonnements auf einmal.
  • Erweiterter Modus: Ermöglicht es, den Ablauf für jedes Abonnement anzupassen.

  • [*] Performance of scanning source server contents before importing sites has been drastically improved.
  • [-] When preparing for a site import, one of the applications being unavailable resulted in failure to detect other applications and list them on the site import page. (PMT-4061)
  • [-] When transferring a subscription from Plesk Onyx, only a single scheduled task was transferred to the target server. (PMT-3894)
  • [-] When migrating a subscription from Plesk 11.5 or later, the password for site application database was not decrypted on the target server, which resulted in the application unable to work on the target server. (PMT-4026)
  • [-] When migrating from a Linux server with Plesk Onyx, pre-migration checks did not detect it when the webmail, used on the source server, was missing on the target server. (PMT-3145)
  • [-] A component, required by Plesk Migrator, was not bundled with it but instead downloaded before first site import. This could result in migration failure in case of network problems. Now the component is a part of Plesk Migrator and does not require separate downloading. (PMT-3735)

  • [*] The reliability of migrations from servers with non-English locale has been improved.
  • [-] Re-syncing a subscription that was reassigned to a different owner during migration flooded the migration log with PHP notices, and could corrupt the Plesk Migrator interface if the display_errors PHP option was enabled. (PMT-3887)
  • [-] Migration from Plesk failed if one or more customer passwords on the source server decrypted to 'none'. (PMT-3876)

  • [*] Sample configurations for migrating from and to Plesk servers with remote SmarterMail were added.
  • [-] When migrating from Plesk 17.0 or later, encrypted passwords of additional FTP accounts were replaced with new random passwords. Now such passwords are migrated without changing. (PMT-3689)
  • [-] If the target server's Plesk license did not include reseller accounts, migrating accounts with reseller privileges resulted in errors. Now Plesk Migrator handles such accounts in the following way:
    • all customer accounts, belonging to the reseller, become regular customer accounts;
    • all subscriptions, belonging to the reseller, are assigned to the administrator account;
    • the reseller account itself is not migrated. (PMT-3795)
  • [-] Plesk Migrator failed to find the document root of an IDN subscription, which resulted in website import failing with an error. (PMT-3809)

  • [-] When migrating websites from a Confixx server, the SSL certificates were transferred to the subscription's certificate pool and were not available for the subscription's domains. As a result, after any webserver reconfigration the websites became unable to use their certificates and had to use the default Plesk certificate. (PMT-3818)
  • [-] If the source server was configured to produce any output in a non-interactive shell (such as an SSH welcome message), migration failed with an error. Now Plesk Migrator detects such configurations and shows a comprehensive message, explaining how to fix the issue. (PMT-3823)
  • [-] When migrating from a server with Horde webmail to a server with different webmail, Plesk Migrator attempted to restore the mail address book, which resulted in an error. Now Plesk Migrator detects such situations and does not try to restore the address book. (PMT-3806)
  • [-] On Windows servers, if the source system had services with names or descriptions, containing non-ASCII characters, the whole server migration failed with message 'Failed to remove missing Python and Perl scripting options from backup dump'. (PMT-3704)

  • [+] Now when a subscription, owner or subscription plan is already migrated, it can be hidden from the 'List of subscriptions' tab.
  • [+] When migrating from cPanel, there is an option to choose whether to migrate subdomains and domain aliases as addon domains, thus preserving the related email accounts.
  • [*] The DirectAdmin migration agent now checks the data consistency on the source side. It correctly performs migration even when there are errors in the configuration of some domains. The overall fault tolerance of the agent has been improved.

  • [-] Migration of mail content from cPanel failed, if the home directory on source was different from /var/home/ (PMT-3212)
  • [-] Several domain aliases, created by cPanel for internal purposes, were migrated as domain aliases in Plesk. Now Plesk Migrator recognizes and ignores such technical aliases. (PMT-3506)
  • [-] Plesk Migrator did not set a password for the source server's user that it creates for copying content. Some servers' configurations forbid SSH authorization of such users, thus making copying unavailable. (PMT-3558)
  • [-] Additional Apache and nginx directives of subscriptions were not transferred. (PMT-3072)
