    Default Migrate sites within DNS cluster

    dont know if you guys have had this before but was wondering if we could have a live migrate feature where we can move clients from one server to another in the cluster?

    You mean like WHM -> Transfers -> Copy an account from another server?

    If you have root access to both servers, why wouldn't you want to use the existing functionality?

    cPanel is about making your life easier.. why have to login to 2 servers when the funcionality could be added in? its not lazyness its just about having a control to move accounts accross servers if needed

    Already possible mate:

    WHM -> Transfers ->

    Unless you want full transfers, liek 100 accounts at once, then thats manual and its a bitch.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think you can move an account between 2 servers in the same DNS cluster - the new server would try to create a DNS zone file, but it would already exist, so the transfer would terminate.

    I stand corrected - I just did it and it worked fine.

    Gotta love cPanel
