Moving from Tommy to Mars?

[mortaine]

I have a Tommy account and am interested in upgrading to Mars. What should I do to make this happen?

I do not need the data currently stored on my Tommy server-- it can be deleted without a problem.

You would need to just buy the Mars VPS, install whatever server software you need, and move your files if you want to keep them. You can have both a Tommy account and a VPS too.

There is no direct migration path from a Plesk plan to any VPS plan, because the VPS comes as an empty Linux box with SSH access.

If you no longer need the Tommy account, you can delete it from the dashboard.

Thanks for the quick reply! 

 

When I try to create a Mars account, it prompts me for a username and then says that username (the one I currently use for my Tommy account) isn't available. I don't have a way to add a Mars account to my existing Tommy login. Do I need two separate logins?

Yes, you would need to use a different username for your VPS. If you absolutely want to use the username as you have now on Tommy for your VPS, we could reset your Tommy account for you, and then you could choose a new username for it.This would then free up the username to use on your VPS, but both usernames will still need to be different.
