Having also moved backup server there was one thing that I initially found confusing. The daily backup was working but the weekly backup didn't appear to work despite the weekly backup on the new server being a couple of weeks old.
But there is a simple explanation for this which I hope putting here will help others to see there won't be a problem.
The backup system WHM uses to check whether a daily, weekly or monthly backup is needed doesn't check the dates of the file on the backup server. What it does is create directories on its own server and looks at the dates of those. You'll find them at /home/cpbackuptmp/cpbackup.
So if it did a weekly backup yesterday to the old backup server, it won't do a weekly backup onto the new backup server until a week has gone by, no matter what the date of the files on the new backup server say.
So eventually it will all sort itself out, and as the old backup server is still around, in case of disaster the weekly and monthly backups are still available.
Hope this is useful.
