Create backups withous user data but only settings

[freakie]

Hi,

We need to migrate multiple DA servers with TB's of data.

Is there a way to create and restore (user) backups with only all settings of a user in it?

So no www / e-mail or mysql data in it.

That way we can use rsync and mysqldumps to migrate all domains at once with minimal downtime

yes, you can exclude from backups "domains data" and "email data" when run backup from admin-level.

We use this strategy to move data from old server to new server.

Inside directadmin.conf -

skip_hometargz_in_backups=1
skip_domains_in_backups=1
skip_imap_in_backups=1
skip_databases_in_backups=1
skip_uebimiau_in_backups=1

service directadmin restart
