• 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.

Plesk 10.2 Migration Manager and DNS

Hi

I'm trying to move 500ish domains from an old Plesk server to a new plesk server. when I use the migration manager to move an individual site it fails to move the custom A records from the DNS zone.

Example: domain.com may have a custom a record of office.domain.com with an ip of 1.1.1.1 (1.1.1.1 may be a DSL services of the customers office). All of these records fail to move with the rest of the customer migration. However custom MX records migrate fine.

Old Server = Ubuntu 8.04 32bit, Plesk 10.2
New Server = Ubuntu 10.04 64bit, Plesk 10.2

I don't know if this is by design from parallels, a bug in plesk or a fault with just my setup. Any comments on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
 
Yes, it is known issue and we have already submitted corresponding bugreport. I have updated bugreport with reference to this post. I hope it will be fixed in the next Plesk version.
 
We've had the same issue here. Luckily not many domains had this and a quick grep -R of /var/named/run-root/ on the older server told us which domains had these. We were then able to input these using the control panel on the new one.
Still it has caused a few problems as it took us a little while to work out that this was happening.
Is there any resolution on this yet?

P.S. Interestingly if there is an A record pointing to an IP on the new server it fails to migrate that too.
