Full server migration to new server with same hostname?

Chris1

Regular Pleskian
Hello,

I'm wondering whether it is possible to perform a full server migration to a new Plesk server with the same hostname or will Plesk give an error about the hostname being the same?

The new server would not be accessible by hostname (only via IP) until DNS and glue records were changed after the migration.

Would there be any problems with this?

Kind regards,
Chris
 
I think that there are shouldn't be problems with migration if this hostname is not resolvable on destination server. You can try at least.
But why you can't change hostname to production after successful migration?
