    Yeah been busy migrating alot of my paid clients - Centmin Mod and non-Centmin Mod based. Especially due to CentOS 7 EOL :)

    You have a few choices right now for data migration from CentOS 7 to EL8 or EL9 based servers:
    1. First is https://community.centminmod.com/threads/centmin-mod-site-data-migration-guide.10382/, which outlines Centmin Mod to Centmin Mod data transfers using tools and techniques that apply to any server move. This migration process I've been doing for decades, and the basic underlying tools and what they are used for are always the same :)
    2. Or Centmin Mod revamped centmin.sh menu option 21 data management menu which I've been developing/testing/using already for migrations to EL8/EL9. It uses the fastest method for data transfers available from my years of experience :) There are both shell menu and shell script command line options available. You can do test migrations without updating domain(s) DNS just to practice and get familiar with the process. The centmin.sh menu option 21 is designed so you could in fact do multiple data transfers to the same server or different servers and each backup will be transferred to their own staging directory. So you can in fact use it like a remote backup method for whole server data as you have the shell script command line options available. There's very detailed centmin.sh menu option 21 documentation for Centmin Mod 131.00stable and Centmin Mod 140.00beta01. There are separate links as documentation will eventually diverge as Centmin Mod 140.00beta01 development continues to improve on the code.
    3. Or hire someone to do the Centmin Mod migration. I've been doing a lot of Centmin Mod and non-Centmin CentOS 7 migrations to EL8/EL9 based Centmin Mod / non-Centmin Mod servers lately - using the centmin.sh menu option 21 revamped data management menu for them too :) So you can contact me via private message.
