  My domain is not configured on cPanel. I use this domain only to reach my WHM

  Hello :) You should create a cPanel account in order to create this subdomain beneath the domain name it's associated with, or create a cPanel account for the subdomain directly. Note that you should not have your server's hostname match a domain name you create an account for. Thank you.

  Hi and thanks for your answer. So is deprecated to create a subdomain in my case?

  I am not sure what you are asking. Could you elaborate about what is deprecated? Thanks.

  You wrote [quote]Note that you should not have your server's hostname match a domain name you create an account for

  No, what that means is that if your hostname is "123.domain.com", then you should not add "123.domain.com" as an account. However, it's okay to add "domain.com" as an account and create a subdomain beneath it. Thank you.
