  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    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.

Plesk Migration Manager IP Address Mapping Question

eugenevdm

Regular Pleskian
I'm about to migrate 450 domains and 250 clients from Plesk 7.5.4 to Plesk 8.

What bothers me is during the Plesk Migration Manager setup screen it asks to what new IP address I want to map my 450 domains' web sites to.

My new server has a new IP. Once the migration is done I want to revert to the old IP of my old server. Is this going to be possible or will I have to update 450 records by hand?

I don't want to change the DNS if possible.
 
Once you migrate to the new server, use the reconfigurator utility. From the command line:

# /usr/local/psa/bin/reconfigurator.pl map_file

This will create a text file named map_file. Edit this file with your old IP and run the command again. It will make the changes you need. Better instructions are in the map_file file.
