To perform the migration you must follow a few simple steps:

1. Generate an API Key on your Source CWP server.
   • CWP Settings >> API Manager
     (You can click on the CWP to CWP button and you will have the necessary options selected.)
2. For the correct operation of this tool you must open port 2304 in the firewall of Source/Destination server.
   • Security >> CSF Firewall
3. Open SSH port of the destination server if other than 22 in the firewall.
4. Whitelist destination IP address.

Source server (Old Server)

To create a connection to your remote/source CWP server first you must generate an API Key on your Source CWP server, To create an API key/token, use API Manager (CWP Settings >> API Manager). You can click on the CWP to CWP button and you will have the necessary options selected.

Log in to the CWP panel.

• First check your SSH port

  • Go to Services config > SSH Configuration
  • Or login to terminal and check

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

• • Port 2251
  • By default the port is 22, if you did not change it.
  • Then check and open TCP port. Note that you must have to add the port 2304 additionally for migration to done successfully.
• Go to Dashboard, then click on Firewall
  • You will find “Opened TCP \ UDP ports” on the right sidebar
  • If it is not listed to TCP IN and TCP OUT
  • Go to Firewall Configuration > Main Configuration on top menu of this page
  • This will open Contents of File: /etc/csf/csf.conf
  • Go to #Allow incoming TCP ports and add your port. In my case Port 2251 and extra port for migration 2304

# Allow incoming TCP ports
TCP_IN = "20,21,22,25,53,80,110,143,443,465,587,993,995,2030,2031,2082,2083,2086,2087,2095,2096,2304,2251"

# Allow outgoing TCP ports
TCP_OUT = "20,21,22,25,53,80,110,113,443,2030,2031,2082,2083,2086,2087,2095,2096,587,993,995,2080,2443,2304,2251"

• • Save Changes
  • Go back to dashboard and go to Firewall again to check the port in TCP IN and OUT.
  • If everything ok, restart Firewall from the top of the menu.

• Go back and add your Destination IP to whitelist.

  • Firewall Whitelist configuration > Add an entry add the Destination IP (New IP) and restart the firewall.
  • Note that if you whitelist IP you need not open port in all cases except Amazon S3, Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure or etc.

• Now lets setup API connection

  • Go to CWP settings and select the option API Manager.
  • On the right top, you will find the button ‘Allow new API access’.
  • Click on it and you will get a popup window with a bunch of options.
    • Short Name: API Name. bdhostit
    • Ip Origin: Destination server IP that you want to authorize this API.
    • Key code: Click on “Generate” and save it somewhere.

      Select the JSON format and enable the function for the cwp to cwp move.
    • You can select CWP to CWP option to enable all functions for CWP to CWP migration.
  • Enable Functions for
    • CWP to CWP
    • WHMCS
    • CLUSTER CWP

    • You can add others as well based on your needs.

• Now you have to create SSK Key

  • Server Settings > SSH Key Generator and then click on Generate new key
  • Test SSH

ssh root@185.215.164.96 -p 6316
ssh root@38.242.204.74 -p 63160 "whoami"

Destination Server (New server)
