Migration - separate act of transferring data from source host to Plesk, which includes the following steps: user's selection of source host and objects for transferring, and the process of transferring data itself.

Migration dump - folder where the data of all objects selected for migration is stored. It is created on the source server, transferred to Plesk server, and then the hosting data is imported to Plesk. Migration Manager stores only one migration dump on source and Plesk servers. It is the dump folder containing data of the migration that was most recently performed.

Migration Manager components - applications that constitute the Migration Manager tool: Migration Manager (installed on Plesk server to which hosting data is transferred) and Migration Agent (installed on the remote server from which hosting data is transferred).

Plesk server - server running Plesk to which hosting data is migrated.

Source server - remote server from which hosting data is migrated to server running Plesk.
