cPanel & WHM (WebHost Manager) provides a powerful import script that allows you to migrate accounts, configurations, and data from one cPanel & WHM server to another. This tool is useful for server administrators who want to transfer hosting accounts, settings, and content from one server to another.

Here's a general outline of how you can use the cPanel & WHM import script:

1. Log In to the New Server:

   • Access the cPanel & WHM interface of the new server using your administrator credentials.

2. Access the Transfer Tool:

   • In WHM, navigate to "Transfers" or "Transfer Tool." This is where you'll find the import script.

3. Select the Source Type:

   • The source type can be another cPanel & WHM server, a remote server with SSH access, or an account archive file.

4. Configure Source Server Details:

   • If you're migrating from another cPanel & WHM server, you'll need to enter the source server's IP address or hostname, along with the SSH port.

5. Enter Source Server Credentials:

   • Provide the SSH username and password for the source server.

6. Select Accounts for Transfer:

   • Choose which accounts you want to migrate. You can select specific accounts or choose to transfer all accounts.

7. Configure Destination Server Details:

   • If you're migrating to a remote server, provide the destination server's IP address or hostname, along with the SSH port.

8. Enter Destination Server Credentials:

   • Provide the SSH username and password for the destination server.

9. Choose Transfer Options:

   • Select additional options, such as whether to preserve or update DNS zones, SSL certificates, or package configurations.

10. Start the Transfer:

    • Initiate the transfer process. The import script will connect to the source server, copy account data, and configure the destination server accordingly.

11. Monitor Transfer Progress:

    • You'll be able to view the progress of each account transfer. This may take some time, depending on the amount of data being migrated.

12. Review Transfer Results:

    • Once the transfer is complete, review the results to ensure that all accounts were migrated successfully.

13. Test Websites and Services:

    • After the transfer, test websites and services on the new server to ensure everything is functioning as expected.

14. Update DNS Records (if necessary):

    • If you're changing the DNS settings, update the DNS records to point to the new server.

15. Verify Email Configuration (if necessary):

    • If the new server is also handling email, verify that email services are properly configured.

16. Post-Transfer Tasks:

    • Perform any additional tasks, such as updating configurations, setting up backups, or securing the new server.

Always keep backups of your data before performing any migrations or transfers. Additionally, consult the official cPanel & WHM documentation and support resources for specific instructions and best practices related to the import script.
