Dear Pleskians! The Plesk Forum will be undergoing scheduled maintenance on Monday, 7th of July, at 9:00 AM UTC. The expected maintenance window is 2 hours.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding on the matter.
I've moved a lot of my physical servers over to VMware and have been thinking/wondering about doing the same thing with my 8.x plesk installation. Has anyone else done this?
I am trying to understand the difference between buying the VMware version (not sure there's a cost to change over?) vs converting my physical machine to a guest.
Also, my machine is linux and has a two drive RAID1 setup so I need to get past that in order to clone the drive as well.
Its really easy to migrate to a virtual server (Virtuozzo, vmware, etc), I just use the migration manager to do it. Run the two boxes in parallel, and you dont have to worry about any downtime when you're doing it.
I also run my plesk on VMWare server although i was unable to convert the physical Linux (Centos) install to a virtual machine, the plesk migration was a breeze but i had to get my plesk license resent. If you are using ESX converting your physical machine should be possible.
I like the idea of simply installing a new distro then migrating it across. I usually contact them before I make such changes so that I have my license handy. If that's all it takes, I think I'm going to get on it soon.
