This configuration file contains only the basic information necessary to perform the migration:

This configuration file contains advanced settings, enabling you to fine-tune many aspects of the migration:
[GLOBAL] # This section defines global settings and lists the source CP servers. # [mandatory, non-modifiable] source-type # Source servers product type. # The other parameters in this configuration template are listed for this particular type, plesk. # Rather than changing the source-type here, browse the provided configuration templates # and pick one that best suits your source type. source-type: helm3 # [mandatory, non-modifiable] target-type # Target servers product type. target-type: plesk # [mandatory] source-servers # Comma-separated list of the sections describing source Helm servers. # An arbitrary number of Helm servers can be listed here. source-servers: helm3, helm3-other-server # [optional] external-db-servers # Comma-separated list of the sections describing external source database servers. # It is highly recommended to specify external database servers for remote MSSQL. # Otherwise, there could be issues when copying database content. # external-db-servers: mssql1 # [optional] session-dir # A directory for migration tool's temporary files. # If not specified, temporary files will be put into 'migration-session'. # session-dir: migration-session # [optional] zones-ttl # The time in seconds, which migration tool sets as the SOA minimum TTL # and refresh interval on a new DNS server. # If not specified, default value is assumed: 120 # zones-ttl: 120 # [optional] external-dns-server # An IP v4 address of an external DNS server that allows recursive DNS queries. # Migration tool uses the specified address to test whether general Internet users # can obtain the correct DNS records for the transferred domains. # If nothing is specified, migration tool will use Google DNS server (8.8.8.8). # If 'none' is specified, migration tool will skip this test. # external-dns-server: 8.8.8.8 # [optional] mail-messages-delta-limit # The post-migration mail checks compare the number of messages in the source # and the target mailboxes. # If the number of messages differs more than it is specified in # "mail-message-count-max-difference", it is considered an error. # If not specified, default value is assumed: 10 # mail-messages-delta-limit: 10 # # [optional] website-availability-check-timeout # Timeout on site response in seconds. When check the availability of site, limit response time. # If not specified, default value is assumed: 30 # website-availability-check-timeout: 30 # [optional] log-message-context-length # When logging a multiline output (API request, response), show only top N # and last N lines. Default value is 0, which means to display full API requests. # log-message-context-length: 10 # [optional] copy-mssql-content # Select way to copy MSSQL content: native MSSQL dumps, text dumps or automatic selection (default). # Possible values: 'native', 'text', 'auto' # Native backups require direct access of migration tool to all MSSQL servers, so make sure # that you provided access to all external MSSQL servers in 'external-db-servers' option. # Native backup is the most reliable way to copy MSSQL database content. # Text dumps have an advantage that they do not require physical access to the servers. # Only access by MSSQL protocols is required. But such way may fail in case of complex MSSQL databases # with stored procedures, triggers, etc. # If automatic selection is specified, panel migrator will use native backups if we have direct access # to the servers with MSSQL, and text dumps otherwise. # copy-mssql-content: auto [plesk] # This section defines Plesk-related settings. # [mandatory] ip # An IP v4 address of the Plesk node. # It does not matter whether this IP address is external or internal, as long as migration tool can connect # to Plesk node at this address. ip: # [mandatory] os # Server's operating system type, 'unix' or 'windows'. Defines which other parameters are required # in this section. os: windows # [optional] panel-username # Plesk administrator user name. If not specified, 'admin' is used. # panel-username: admin # [optional] panel-password # Plesk administrator password. If not specified, it is automatically detected. # panel-password: setup # [optional] windows-session-dir # A directory for temporary files on Plesk Windows service nodes. # If not specified, temporary files will be put into C:\migrator # windows-session-dir: C:\migrator # [optional] is-local # Whether migration tools are working on the same server as target Plesk. # Default is true. # is-local: true [helm3] # This section defines the settings of Helm3 control panel server. # [mandatory] ip # An IP v4 address of this Helm CP server. ip: # [optional] windows-username # User name of the privileged system user on this Helm server. Default is 'Administrator'. # windows-username: Administrator # [mandatory] windows-password # Password of the privileged system user on this Helm server. windows-password: password # [optional] copy-mail-content # This parameter specifies what mail content should be copied from the server: # 'full' to copy all mail content, 'messages' to copy only messages from the Inbox folders # and 'none' to skip copying. # Note that if the server does not support IMAP, it is possible to copy only Inbox messages # using the 'messages' option. # If not specified, all mail content is copied. # copy-mail-content: full # [optional] copy-web-content # This parameter specifies what web content should be copied from the server: # 'full' to copy all web content, and 'none' to skip copying. # If not specified, all web content is copied. # copy-web-content: full # [optional] session-dir # A directory for temporary files. If not specified temporary files are put into C:\migrator. # session-dir: C:\migrator [helm3-other-server] # This section defines the settings of Helm3 remote server. # [mandatory] ip # An IP v4 address of this Helm CP server. ip: # [optional] windows-username # User name of the privileged system user on this Helm server. # Specify if username is different from username on control server. # windows-username: Administrator # [optional] windows-password # Password of the privileged system user on this Helm server. # Specify if password is different from password on control server. # windows-password: password # [optional] session-dir # A directory for temporary files.
