migration dns server

Unnamed User

Hi, I have 3 vps with cpanel dnsonly installed and used for manage 300 domains, now this installation is old, what do you recommend me to do? I was thinking if I no longer wanted to manage them directly, do you know of any services that only offer DNS?

    Hey there!  If you wanted to upgrade the machines, all you have to do is add new DNSOnly servers to the cluster, remove the old nameservers from the registrar, and then shut off the old nameservers once you're confident all traffic is going to the new ones.

    I don't have any specific service recommendations for DNS providers as that isn't something cPanel provides.

    Are you able to manually connect to the servers from the command line?  Whenever I see a networking error like this, I always try a basic telnet connection to see if the port itself is responding how I expect:

    telnet 000.000.000.000 2087

    You may need to install telnet with "yum install telnet" on your server if that command doesn't exist.

    [root@ssd9 ~]# telnet 000.000.000.000
    Trying 000.000.000.000...
    telnet: connect to address 000.000.000.000: Connection refused
    [root@ssd9 ~]#

    And just to confirm, in case I wasn't clear, you changed that to the valid IP of the server that you originally blocked out, correct?  If so, that would be the issue and you'll need to check the firewall on both systems to figure out where the issue is.

    if I click in Action button on my webserver and click SUBMIT I receive this message

    The Trust Relationship has been established.
    The remote server, dns1.myhostname.net, is running WHM version: 11.120.0.11
    The reverse trust relationship has been established from the remote server to this server as well.
    The new role for 000.000.000.000 is sync.
     
    but in listing cluster report connection error

    Can the DNS cluster machine communicate back with the webserver over port 2087?  That telnet test should work both ways in order for that connection to work.

    Could you create a support ticket so this can be investigated?
