Can HostNexus restore a Plesk settings backup from another host?

MkInquiry · 07-01-2009, 06:13 PM

I am currently hosted with another Plesk host and am contemplating switching to HostNexus. My email settings in particular are very complicated - many addresses, forwards, autoresponders, etc. My current host has enabled the "backup" option in my control panel to enable me to back up my current domain settings and content in Plesk's proprietary backup format. If I sign up with HN and provide this backup file, can you use it to restore my account so my email configuration, etc., will be duplicated to my HN account without me having to go through a tedious manual setup?

The Plesk versions have to be similar. What version is your control panel currently?

Thanks for your speedy reply. My current host is on Plesk Control Panel 8.6.0 .

We are still using 8.6.0 for the most part so your backup archive will restore just fine on our servers. Once you get setup you can probably do yourself. Just upload your backup to the repository and restore. In the comments section of the order form just state you need 8.6.0 and I'll make sure you get on the right server.
