Hey, I personnaly used the method in this KB: http://kb.odin.com/en/5864
It worked well from 8.1 to 9.0.1.

Thanks ! uff Im more reliefed.
Is it easy to re-read the IP , because Im migrating between machine I'll have a new IP. Once I did it using: /usr/local/psa/bin/reconfigurator.pl but long time ago. Any tips ?

Thanks

This should not be a problem. I also migrated domains to different IPs. In the plesk interface, you can map the IPs while importing the backups (after the conversion to PSA9).

Your OS natively came out with php5 so it might be time to update this app? php6 is around the corner and 4 is ancient.
