• The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

named/DNS randomly losing records

over the past week since upgrading to plesk 7.5.3 (plesk did the upgrade), we have noticed ALOT of issues around the named service.

Specifically with domains zone files just all of a sudden not listed in the named.conf file.

while i know how to fix this problem, by:

a) editing the named.conf file to include the zone information for these domains

or

b) logging into plesk, selecting the domain which has all of a sudden stopped working, and then clicking "dns", disabling it, then re-enabling it.

Whats more important and what i really need to know is why the (*#$ this is happening to begin with. With domains randomly it seems, stopping to work, this looks very bad for us. down time is nuts !!!

there is no order, or pattern to the issue, half of one customers domains will work while all of anothers will be fine...

I know that psa writes the zone information to the psa database, and uses that to write the named.conf file.

So basically, how do i get PLESK to recreate the entire named.conf file from the database, and secondly, why are the entries in the psa database all of a sudden, randomly missing certain domains?
