How to transfer / migrate Cpanel accounts

January 11th, 2010

There are four important steps we should follow when it comes to the transfer of cPanel accounts among different server.

Below a simple and brief description is given on how to perform the migration.

Steps to transfer cPanel accounts

  1. Change the $TTL of the zone in old server
  2. Transfer the accounts.
  3. Update the nameservers.
  4. Change the A record of the zone file in old server

1. Change the $TTL of the zone in old server

Before one week of the scheduled transfer, all the $TTL values in the zone file must be changed to a smaller value between 30 minutes to 1 hour. This will take some time to propogate  to various ISPs around the world. The change in $TTL value ensures that the fresh zone files are loaded all around the world faster and that they access the old server for a shorter duration.

2. Transfer the accounts

Transfer the account using whm. If the size of the account is more than of 300 mb then move the folder which is of larger size to another directory outside that account. Then create a symbolic link for that folder in the original directory. After the transfer of the account using whm, scp the moved folder to the new server.

Also rsync the following directories between the two servers.

  1. /var/cpanel
  2. /usr/local/cpanel

3. Update the nameserver

Change the ip address of the child nameserver at the domain registrar. There will be a propogation delay of almost 48 hours.

4. Change the A record of the zone file in old server

For the time of propogation delay the domain keeps resoling to old server.  To make it resolve to new server, change the A record in the zone files of the old server.

How to develop troubleshooting skills and become a good server admin

January 7th, 2010

10 points to increase troubleshooting skills and become a good Server Admin

1) Be clear with the concepts

You will be learning lot of things in random in your day-to-day work, but essentially what you need to remember are the basic concepts of each technology you have come across, starting from basic commands, services associated, the applications related, tools etc. Before you enter the system admin scenario, join the popular discussion boards, mailing lists relating to your domain. Believe me, a lot of quick tips can be gathered just by reading what others in the business have to say.

2) Build your knowledgebase

Its always good habit to write down somewhere whatever you have learned new in your days work. It would definitely come in handy in the future, cos you might have got it after rigorous research and you need not do it a second time. My notes that I always keep have saved me plenty of time for many of the issues that creep up. Also be willing to ask your peers or seniors or in the forums when you find yourself stuck, cos experience is one thing you can never garner in a little time. Remember, you can revert the favor when they look for you.

3) Try to relate with the technologies

In my early days I have wasted plenty of hours trying to find a fix without understanding the cause, but that has changed. You have to keep in mind that there will be some relation with services or applications you are working with. So if something not working it might be that of some other service that is related to it. Knowing which is causing the problem is the measure of your troubleshooting skill. So think cleverly and identify the possible causes. Read more…

Fix for pecl.php.net is using a unsupported protocol error

January 5th, 2010

Sometimes you may get this error while you try to install php modules using pecl command. and you may get the error “pecl.php.net is using a unsupported protocal” .

In case you get this error, clear out the contents in /usr/local/lib/php/.channels and /usr/lib/php/.channels and run the command ‘pecl update-channels’ . That should fix the issue.
