Plesk version and microupdate number

Hello everyone:

I have the domain in Plesk. How can I create an account for a customer and subscription or whatever I need. When I go to add customer it always tells me This domain name already exists. I've looked everywhere and don't see how to . I am going to give my daughter a domain that I have available and already have it inside Plesk. So that she can practice all the options in Plesk. and at the same time I practice as if she were a customer.

Sorry my English is no good, I am using a translator

Please any advice?

Thanks so much ☺

Jose

You have at least two options:
- Remove the domain from your existing subscription, then create a new subscription for your daughter using the domain name.
or
- Create a new subscription with a placeholder domain name, then go into your old subscription and use the "Move Domain" feature to move the existing domain into your daughter's new subscription.

Thanks so much Peter! ☺. In the future I will have another VPS server is very shipper in [redacted, offer of a provider]. In Plesk you can join both VPS servers or need a software to join it?

Thanks again☺

You cannot merge VPS in general. You can migrate content from one Plesk to another using the free Plesk Migrator extension.

This can't be the only way, right !?
I have 4 domains i host with active websites and mailserver for a friend. And as this friend now opened a company, i created an Account on Plesk for him. Moving the existing subscriptions should imho be an easy thing for a plesk admin, but it seems i am forced to backup and delete all first and st everything up new with the new customer account. Really !?!?!?

It is. You can change owner of a subscription as an admin quite easily as outlined in this support article: https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/...hange-the-owner-for-the-subscription-in-Plesk
