Question
How to speed up a Plesk migration?
Answer
The time effort for a migration depends on the following:
-
amount of the migrated data
-
network bandwidth
-
server performance
To speed up a migration, consider to:
-
Increase server performance:
- stop all tasks/processes that are not necessary to run
- suspend domains before starting a migration. This should only be done in case the websites are allowed to be unavailable while the migration is running. -
Improve network performance:
- speed up SSH connection by contacting a network administrator for increasing network connection speed
-
When migrating via a command-line interface, reduce the amount of data:
- transfer domains by small bunches (5-10) at once
