Export / import configuration between server

Hi, is there a way to export "global" virtualmin settings in order to move to a different server? I mean: PHP settings, mail settings, plans, plugin's configuration, and so on?

Thank you

Sorry, I just noticed "Backup virtual server" >> Features to backup If I export such values, will I able to re-use them on new server (with a different IP address)?

yeah its simple. If the ip of the server is different you can update this globally.

Configuring/troubleshooting Debian servers is always great fun

Hi unborn, do you mean manually in every possible configuration file (Apache, Postfix etc...) or is there a way to do this through Virtualmin web interface? Thank you

Hi, yes it should work for you in every mean.. - you know you would not loose old configuration on your old server - just keep it preserved - meaning do update from machine 1 to physical update to machine 2 and once satisfied - just remove the machine 1..

@fkville :) There is a documentation about Migrating To a New Server at https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/system/migrate

Which includes export / import configuration between server.
