  • 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.

SOA Serial Number Format is Invalid

Sven L.

Regular Pleskian
Hello,

there are many online tools to check the health of our servers, domains, smtp services, etc.

this came to my attention a long time ago, but it is now that i actually want to try and fix this stuff.

dns mydomain.tld SOA Serial Number Format is Invalid
dns mydomain.tld SOA Expire Value out of recommended range

so, how can i fix this, what values should i use? do those SOA serial numbers have to be different on each domain or can they be the same on the whole server? and where do i get those serials?



S.
 
OK, I have found the options to change this stuff...

but that leads to the next question:

i have 50 domains, 5-10 of them have special dns settings, the rest use default settings...

for what i have seen, if i change serverwide SOA options, it will rewrite all DNS settings on all domains? will this delete the special settings on thos 5-10 domains?



S.
 
how do you solve this issue? after changing the settings, I still get the warnings.
