OK, my Plesk server is rapidly going down the toilet… how do I mass move 55 domains into virtualmin/webmin??? Certainly, there has to be a cheat sheet to do this easily. I have root privileges on both servers. I need to migrate files, dbs, mail and IPs.
Plesk 9.2.3 is running on Linux 2.6.9-89.0.28.plus.c4smp (Centos 5.???)
Virtualmin info:
Operating system CentOS Linux 6.2
Webmin version 1.585 Virtualmin version 3.92 Pro

Package updates All Virtualmin packages are up to date.
5 updates to system packages are available. Use the Virtualmin Package Updates module to install them selectively.
There is also a menu called “add server -> migrate virtual server”:
This page allows you to create a new virtual server by migrating a backup file created by a competitor’s product. The configuration for all supported features will be extracted from the backup, and converted for use by Virtualmin. All contents of the domain’s directory will be copied into the home directory of the new user.
Yup, so long as the Plesk backup contains your database (which it should), Virtualmin will be able to import it.
Also, note that some (but not all) migrations can be done in batch – by placing multiple backup files into a single directory, and then pointing Virtualmin to your directory of Plesk backups.
That doesn’t always work, as sometimes Virtualmin needs more information about each one – but it may be worth a shot
