Plesk to Plesk migrations changing the default 2GB upload limit.

Hi,
I just bought linode VPS, and I have my website using plesk, and how can I migrate from my old plesk to my new plesk I already installed in linode?
I've already tried using Plesk Migrator in my new plesk in linode to migrate from my source server(old website) but still no luck. Lastly I've tried using Plesk backup manager to backup and restore, and still not working, because the maximum upload file is 2GB, and my backup file from old plesk is 10GB.
Thankyou

Hey there,
We can point you in the right direction. You will need to SSH to your Linode and edit the configuration file. I like to use nano, so the command is for that, but you can any text editor you prefer.
sudo nano /usr/local/psa/admin/conf/php.ini
Then find the lines in the file that starts with post_max_size and upload_max_filesize and change the amount to above what you need. It looks like you need 10GB. I would change it to 11 GB, so you have a little extra room. Then after you save the file run the following command to restart Plesk:
/etc/init.d/psa restart
