This chapter describes how to perform the following tasks:
- Change server’s host name.
- Change server IP addresses. You may need to do this when, for
instance, you are moving your Plesk server to a new datacenter, and
need to reconfigure the Plesk installation to run on new IP
addresses. - Move the directory where virtual hosts reside to another location on
the same or another partition. You might want to do this when disk
space on the current partition is running out. - Move the directory where Plesk backup files are stored to another
location on the same or another partition. You might want to do this
when, for instance, there is insufficient disk space on the current
partition to house new backup files, and you want to move them all to
a new, larger volume. - Move the directories that house mail content to another location on
the same or another partition. You might want to do this when there
is insufficient amount of disk space on the current partition to
serve a larger amount of mailboxes, and you want to move them all to
a new larger volume. - Switch the database server engine used by Plesk.
- Stop, start, and restart Plesk-managed services from command line,
and access their logs and configuration files.
