Next Steps?

[Trance Omega]

I just purchased a VPS plan. Now I am waiting for the next steps? Where is the cpanel and how do I go about getting my site migrated over?

Thanks

You should get a welcome email with your WHM / SSH root login soon.

After that, here are the instructions on using cPanel.


You can create a new account via WHM > Account functions > Create new account. Please refer to the following URL for documentation:
---
https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/Create+a+New+Account
---

You can then log in with the cPanel account using at the following URL:
---
URL : https://<server ip>:2083
---

You can use the same cPanel account username and password for FTP also.
---
IP address : XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
Username : cPanel account
Password: cPanel password
---

You can create additional FTP accounts via cPanel > Files > FTP accounts. Please see the below given URL in this regard.

---
https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/FTP+Accounts
---

You can manage your databases via cPanel > Databases > Mysql databases.
---
https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/MySQL+Databases
---

You can also manage it via PHPMyadmin utility available in your cPanel > Databases > phpMyAdmin.
---
https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/phpMyAdmin

Detailed information about various options in WHM and cPanel can be found in the following URLs:
