migration from server A to server B

[kadoudal]

I am trying to perform my first migration...
Server A 9.2.3 up-to-date w Migration Manager component
Server B 9.2.3 up-to-date w Migration Manager component
I created a user 'plesk_migrate' on server A (it belongs to psaadmn group.. maybe wrong ?)

From Server B
Source hostname or IP = serveurA.com
login = plesk_migrate
password = xxxxxxxx

but when I hit Next, I get : Error: Host serveurA.com is not accessible
seems to be a permission issue.....

what does it mean ? "Administrator/power user of the source server" ...
I tried root/root_pwd , same issue Error: Host serveurA.com is not accessible

how should I define this user on Serveur A ?

/opt/psa/PMM is root:root drwxr-xr-x , should I modify the write permission ?

thanks

1. Make sure that you are migrating from the supported platforms. The list of supported platforms can be found at the following link:

http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/PPP9/Doc/en-US/plesk-9.2-migration-guide/63279.htm

2. Migration Manager uses SSH protocol for uploading of migration agents to source server and dump files retrieving. Make sure that:

1. SSH server is running and SSH (22) port is opened on the source server (you are performing the migration from),
2. SSH server on the source server allows connecting it with SSH version 2 protocol,
3. you are able to login from destination server to the source one via SSH under the user you specified during the migration. Also check that you can transfer a file from the source server to the destination Parallels Plesk Panel server with scp command.
