Moving Directadmin to a new server

[Mr-Pro]

Hello guys ,
I currently have directadmin installed on a centos 7 server . All the users are using a shared ip which is the vps ip . How can I transfer everything to the new server easily? Directadmin is already installed there so I assume if there is a full backup of the whole system and we can replace old ip with the new ip , then we are good ! Can you tell me how to accomplish that?
Regards ,

Easy way is to transfer via admin backup/transfer, we always do it this way.

You can also backup everyone first via this option, then rsync to the /admin/admin_backups directory and use the admin backup/transfer option to restore the accounts.
However you have to be aware of some things in that case.
On the restore options on the new server, remember to ticket on restore that the new ip and nameservers (if present) are used.
Always first restore admin, then resellers and users as last, to prevent running into problems.
