Best way to migrate Plesk 7.5.4 to a new server

Regular Pleskian
Hi,

I need to migrate a Plesk 7.5.4 installation from an older RHEL3 server to a newer RHEL4 server.

I still want to use Plesk 7.5.4 on the server, since I don't trust Plesk 8.0.1 or 8.1 yet.

Should I use the Plesk Migration Manager and Backup Utilities (psadump/psarestore) for the migration?

Which one is faster and more reliable?

Also, since there is very little free space on the older server, I cannot store a full dump file on it.

Did anyone use the "Simultaneous backup/restore" procedure described at the following URL?

Anything I should pay attention to doing that?

Thanks.
