This script can guide admin thru vzmigration process.
This vzmigration is made for minimum downtime, livemode and will keep old server VM running

Code:
echo "ONE VM MIGRATION AND FIXING SCRIPT
--------------------------------------
This script migrates one VM to another server (live mode) and can keep old server VM running. Result log is sent to email provided.

Command used to backup one VM:
vzmigrate -v --remove-area no --live --readonly --keep-dst --ssh="-p 22" destinationnodeip 110
---------------------------------------------------" && yum install mutt -y
echo "This script assumes VZ conf path is /etc/vz/conf/VMID.conf - if its other, you need to edit this script"

echo "VMID to migrate:"

read OLDIP
if [ "$OLDIP" == "" ];then
OLDIP=$(vzlist $VMID -o ip -H)
fi
echo "VMID New IP: (assign it now in new server HyperVM, then paste here)"
read NEWIP

vzmigrate -v --remove-area no --live --keep-dst --ssh="-p 22" $ip $VMID | tee migration.log
mv $cpath/$VMID.conf.migrated $cpath/$VMID.conf | tee -a migration.log
vzctl start $VMID


echo "Migration for $VMID VM should be complete.. check following log. and new HyperVM server vzlist. Then run script ./home/vzdumprestore which contains VM IP changing & fixing routines.


$(cat migration.log)" | mutt -s "VM Migration logs" -- $mail
rm -rf migration.log

This is second script which can be used at new server for VM restoration (vzrestore):

Code:
clearecho "This script can:
- restore vzdump file
- delete old VM ip and replace by new one set by user
- replace old ips in hosts, dns zone files
- add /var/log/httpd folder, restart named and httpd
- script will report old ip, new ip and vzlist before change to the email $mail"
ls | grep tgz
echo "Do just VM fixing (hit enter) or do vzdump file restore also? (y=yes)  ... assuming vzdump-VMID.tgz file is in same directory as this script."
read dumpok
echo "VMID to work with:"
read VMID
if [ "$dumpok" == "y" ];then
vzdump --restore vzdump-$VMID.tgz $VMID;vzctl start $VMID;sleep 2
echo "VM $VMID vzdump restore finished, now respond to the script questions in SSH terminal to continue."
fi

First run these commands if above was outputted old ips in files:

Change IPs in WHMCS and send client email with new IP"

No guarantee is provided for runing thes scripts, but i tested them and it worked for me.


Here is third script which can automated process of migrating ALL OpenVZ VMs:

Code:
echo "This script migrates all VMs to another server (live mode) and can keep old server VMs running. Result log for each VM is sent to email provided.

Command used to backup one VM: vzmigrate -v --remove-area no --live --readonly --keep-dst --ssh="-p 22" destinationnodeip 110

echo "IP of destination server:"

echo "Path to vm config files: (def. is /etc/vz/conf , hit enter to confirm)"
read cpath
if [ "$cpath" == "" ];then
cpath=/etc/vz/conf
fi
echo "Email where report will be sent: (def. [email protected] , hit enter to confirm)"
read email
if [ "$email" == "" ];then
email=[email protected]
echo "That is ALL, migration can take many hours. You will receive an email after each VM migration finish. Hit any key to start."
read start
for CT in $(vzlist -H -o veid); do
vzmigrate -v --remove-area no --live --readonly --keep-dst --ssh="-p 22" $ip $CT | tee migration.log
mv $cpath/$CT.conf.migrated $cpath/$CT.conf | tee -a migration.log
echo "Migration for $CT VM should be complete.. check following log. and new HyperVM server vzlist. Then run script ./home/vzdumprestore which contains VM IP changing & fixing routines.


$(cat migration.log)" | mutt -s "VM Migration logs" -- $email
done
rm -rf migration.log
