Best way to move cpanel accounts and OLD IP's to a new server?

[AdamDresch]

Hi all,

Trying to figure out the best way to do this

Situation is this

Old server has a failing hard drive, so I Want to move all the sites I host, to a new server, using the same IP ranges
There's about 70 accounts, about 20 have dedicated IP's
I know there's no server migration system, so what's the best way of doing it?
Can the accounts be copied across, then certain configuration files, like /etc/ips and the dns files, be replaced with the ones from the old server?

Hello

The recommended method of copying the accounts is to use to the "Transfer Tool" option in WHM. However, the following thread might be helpful if you have a failing hard drive that prevents you from using WHM:

Thank you.
