Full system restore with Rsync - Plesk restore safe?

[Xavier12]

Hey guys,

Would like to know what are the dangers of backing up and restoring full entire system backups (with plesk installed) to another server with a different ip address? Will the restored plesk setup operate properly and offer an ip address change in the system, or will there be any pre-requisites required such as manual ip changing within the system core files?

Please advise, thnx!

As per our experience we don't prefer rsync. It will overwrite all the settings which you have on new server. Settings like dns templates, Ip etc. Best solution is to use plesk migration tool. It will convert all the required settings.
