Thread: Server To Server Data Transfer

There are many simple ways of doing it,
[method 1]
1.first on your old server go to backup in cpanel
2.backup your data
3.make sure you select the ftp destination when you are asked
4.enter your ftp details of the new server and pree ok.
5.wait for some time and ur data will be transfered to the new server.

[method 2]
this is only posible if U have access to SSH(Shell)
1.backup your data in the old server
2.after backing up,set permission of the backed up file to 777
3.login into ssh of new server
4.if you are in root folder,then navigate to ur accunt using :

Code:

cd /home/account_username

Where the account username is your cpanel username
4.copy data into new server using the shell command

Code:

wget http://ur_site_url/backup_file_name.tar.gz

5.wait for sometime and ur file is tranfered

[Method 3]
if U own your own server,then login to your whm
go to copy website from another server,enter old cpanel details and wait for it to copy.

I will upload a script to do that here soon

you can just use your ssh client (like putty) and copy the file into your web directory to access it through http and use wget command in ssh, it takes less than a minute to copy large files depends on the server transfer speed

Code:

for example your file is here:
http://yourdomain.com/backup.tar.gz

just run this command in ssh client

Code:

wget http://yourdomain.com/backup.tar.gz

question is have you enough bandwidth to transfer the file from your old host to your new one?
