Checking Plesk Migration Manager Installation

Before you start migrating hosting data, it is recommended to check if migrations are possible. Conditions of migration possibility vary depending on the source and destination hosting platforms, as follows:

#	Source*	Destination*	Conditions
1	PPPU	PPPW	Plesk Migration Manager (PMM) component is installed on the destination server.
2	PPPU	PPPW	PMM component is installed on the destination server.
3	PPPW	PPPW	1. PMM component is installed on the destination server. AND 2. Plesk Migration Agent is installed on a source server (the last cannot be checked via API RPC)
4	PPPW	PPPU	none Such migrations are not yet supported.

* - PPPU stands for Parallels Plesk Panel for Unix/Linux, PPPW for Parallels Plesk Panel for Windows.

To check if Plesk Migration manager is installed on a Plesk server, send the request packet containing the check operational node:

<packet version="1.6.0.2">

  <migration>

     <check/>

  </migration>

</packet>

Response Packet Structure

The check node in the response packet received from server is structured as follows:

The result node is required. It wraps the result of the check operation. Data type: resultType.
The status node is required. It returns the execution status of the check operation. Data type: string. Allowed values: ok | error.
The errcode node is required if the check operation fails. It returns the error code. Data type: unsignedInt
The errtext node is required if the check operation fails. It returns the error message. Data type: string.

Response Samples

If Plesk Migration Manager is installed on a server to which a request packet was sent, the response from the server looks as follows:

<packet version="1.6.0.2">

<migration>

<check>

   <result>

      <status>ok</status>

   </result>

</check>

</migration>

</packet>

The following response is received if the request packet was sent to a server on which Plesk Migration Manager is not installed.

<packet version="1.6.0.2">

<migration>

<check>

   <result>

      <status>error</status>

      <errcode>1026</errcode>
