Cpanel -> Cpanel (Bulk)

Quick guide on the steps to migrate cPanel accounts in bulk to another cPanel server

  • Add the list of domains that need to be migrated in list-domains.txt

  • Get the username for all domains and save it in list-users.txt

for i in `cat list-domains.txt`; do cat /etc/userdomains | grep$ $i | awk {'print $2'}; done
  • Now start generating a tar ball

cat list-users.txt | xargs -i /scripts/pkgacct {}
  • Or we can skip the home directory and rsync it later as we just backup the config file and databases

cat list-users.txt | xargs -i /scripts/pkgacct --skiphomedir {}
  • Get all the tar balls that been transferred from old server to a new server

ls -al | grep '.tar.gz' >> list-tarball.txt
  • Start the restoration

cat list-tarball.txt | xargs -i /scripts/restorepkg {}
