Openvz VPS Manual Migration

 

1. Stop the VPS on the old server

vzctl stop CTID

2. Copy the private area and the configuration file to the new server.

rsync -avz -e ssh /vz/private/CTID/ root@NEWSERVERIP:/vz/private/CTID/

rsync -avz -e ssh /etc/vz/conf/104.conf root@NEWSERVERIP:/etc/vz/conf

3. Start the VPS on the old server

vzctl start CTID

4. Update the SolusVM database, so the VPS appears on the new server. Run this command on the SolusVM Master.

/scripts/vm-migrate VPSID(old vps id) NODEID    (I think new node&vps  details)

VPSID = The number in the ID column next to the VPS in SolusVM. This is NOT the CID/XID.

NODEID = The number in the ID column next to the Node in SolusVM under Nodes > List

5. Give the VPS a new IP Address

Find the VPS in SolusVM and go to "IP Addresses". Add a new IP address from the list, then click on "Main IP" and make it the main IP Address. Then

remove all of the old IP Addresses under "IP Addresses"

6. Start the VPS on the new server

vzctl start CTID
