Just to share my experience with this application. If you are migrating Plesk (8.x) to Plesk (8.x) (ie another server running plesk) and you have little space left on the /home (or /) hard disk partition on the source server.

You must also have a partition that has at least enough space to hold the /var/www/vhost content...

Plesk migration manager stores dumped file under /home/migration. To alleviate the risk of filling the / or /home partition do this:



where {otherpartitiondir} is a full path on the partition that has enough space.

I hope that will help you as Plesk is not really telling you where the stuff is stored (or I did not find it)

Hello Bib,

Thanks for that information. It may be worth pointing out that the /home/migration directory can also be mounted directly instead of symlinked, like so:



(where x=drive letter and n=partition number)

This can be done with samba using the -t cifs option, for if you're wanting to have the dumps stored on another server.
