Hi I have a hol machine whit 90Gb HD, I want trasfer all to new machine 300Gb (sata). I can backup all and restore all to new machine?
In the new machine I can install Fedora_5 (in the old is fedora_1)?
I must create, after the installation all domain, account.. ecc or the restore resolve it?

Plesk has a back up utility that can also store user settings. I have not tried this fully (aka the restore part) but it should work.

thank
I must do the backup from command line?

The most global way I can do it is,

1) Go to "Clients"
2) Select a client
3) Click "Backup"
4) Click "Backup Now"
5) Select "Preferences and Account Details" and all the domains
6) Click "Backup Now"
7) Download the file when completed

Then upload the file on the new server and click "Restore".

This is probably not best way and I don't even know if it will work so wait for someone who knows what they are doing to answer.
