Sitebuilder is a very minor activity for us but more than a minor pain when it comes to migrating servers.
We only run SiteBuilder on one of our servers as a convenience to a small number of clients. As a result, upgrades tend to be deferred. Currently the server is running Plesk version 8.0 and SiteBuilder 3.0.1. We need to move sites to a new server running Plesk 8.3 which integrates SiteBuilder 4.1.
From other posts it appears we need to upgrade to SiteBuilder 4.1 on the "old server" before we can move the data to the new server.
I have a couple of simple questions.
1. Can we go directly from 3.0.1 to 4.1 and if not which intermediate steps e.g. 3.X.X do I need to step through.
2. Is the move to from 3.0.1 -> 3.X.X -> 4.1 (if 3.X.X is required) sufficiently reliable that it can be done on a "live" system.
3. What data need to be backed up prior to starting this process.
Thanks in advance
