    I have searched for that a lot but still haven't found an exaustive answer, so any suggestion is very welcome.
    Let's imagine the following scenario:

    ISP1: master ispconfig server with web interface
    WEB1: general web/db/etc. server with ispconfig installed as slave of ISP1
    WEB2: general web/db/etc. server with ispconfig installed as slave of ISP1
    ISP2: brand new ispconfig server with web interface

    What i am trying to do is to pass WEB1 and WEB2 under ISP2 as their master, kind of "detach" them from ISP1 and "attach" them to ISP2.
    No data from WEBX servers has or needs to be moved, just want them to be controlled by ISP2 instead of ISP1.
    Any thought?
    Thank you all for this great piece of software.

    basically, you will have to move the complete ISPConfig installation from isp1 to isp2 incl. the mysql ispcsrv* and root users and then point web1 and web2 to isp2 either by changing the dbmaster details in ispconfig config.inc.php on both servers or by simply using hostname of isp1 in future for isp2.

    Is the migration toolkit capable of such a task? I've read that it can handle a complete server transfer (either master or server). Is there somebody out there that already tried something like that? Some suggestions?
    Could be that in the future i'll need to move slaves too, for example set up a new WEB3 server and move WEB2 to WEB3 as a ISP2 slave. Maybe i should look forward for ISPConfig Migration Toolkit or ISPCopy

    The Migration tool can not be used but you can copy the server with ISPCopy and then change the dbmaster details as described above.
