I made a backup via Vesta, but now I want to import it into a new install.
What is the best way to do this?
I'm using an Ubuntu 14.04 x64 Server on Digital Ocean.

1. Make backup using web interface or "v-backup-user" command
2. Copy file /backup/$user.$date.tar to new server
3. Restore user using following command "v-restore-user $user $user.$date.tar"
Hint: You can change archive name and restore bacup under new username.
