Need some qucik help with cpmove

[impload]

Hi so I am trying to restore a cpmove but It says this:

This feature will restore full backups, cpanel backups and cpanel move files in the format of: cpmove-user.tar.gz, user.tar.gz, backup-date_time_user.tar.gz

The files must be in one of these directories on the server: /home, /home2, /home3, /root, /usr, /usr/home, /web

You must upload the file to one of the above locations before using this feature.

I know I need to move the cpmove file to /home through ssh but i am not familiar with it so can someone show mehow to do that? Please and thanks guys

At your command prompt type

man cp

to learn about copying files, or

man mv

to learn about moving files

did that but im still lost...im new to this. can someone tell me exactly what i should type into the command line ssh and an example?

Where is the full account backup currently located?

Is it already located on the new server that you need to restore (extract) it on?

Hello thanks for the reply.
Yes the file is on the server i want to restore it on already.

It is here /home2/impload/public_html/CPMOVEFILE

What command do i need to do to make it be at /home2/CPMOVEFILE

To accomplish either copying the file, or moving the file, either of the following two commands could be used:

To copy the file:

# cp -pv /home2/impload/public_html/CPMOVEFILE /home2/CPMOVEFILE

To move the file:

# mv -v /home2/impload/public_html/CPMOVEFILE /home2/CPMOVEFILE

Instead of relocating the cpmove file and using WHM, there is another option that can be used to skip copying or moving the file, in case you would like to restore via root SSH access; this can be accomplished using the "restorepkg" script, as seen below

# /scripts/restorepkg /home2/impload/public_html/CPMOVEFILE

To see available command-line options (CLI switches) for the restorepkg script, you may also execute it without any arguments, such as the following example:

# /scripts/restorepkg
