Question Email: DNSSEC KSK rollover occurred in the DNS zone <domain>

[MHC_1]

Server operating system version

Alma Linux

Plesk version and microupdate number

18

So we are getting emails from some imported domains stating:

Please copy these new DS resource records and add them to the parent zone:

<domain>. IN DS 52400 8 1 BAAE.......767FA3A28
<domain>. IN DS 52400 8 2 2E5C...........F044812E..............46E70973F9A0F035..........3C90B24F59
<domain>. IN DS 9170 8 1 E87...........B8F38BA3A81EB...........4106F6B3F
<domain>. IN DS 9170 8 2 16C401............2DD0D4E3A...............4158B93FB741284B8..........4EC38D8276E

I assume the "parent" zone is the Server domain because the DNS is handled on the server for multiple client domains.

The admin of the previous server these came from said they had similar notices but just ignored them, and DNS seemed to retain / remain ok.

- What on a practical level do we need to do with the above notification?
- Is it handled automatically?
- If so/ if not can we turn off the notification if action is unneeded.

It is not handled automatically. The keys must be manually updated in the parent zone. If you are unsure where the parent zone is, you can use a tool like DNSViz. If the records are not updated you can experience DNS issues, so I wouldn't recommend ignoring the notification. The full doc:

Hello

If the DNS parent is on the same server , where/how would that parent domain be updated as per the email?
