If you are using albatross.cloudhostdns.net name servers (ns3.cloudhostdns.net, ns4.cloudhostdns.net), then you don’t need to change anything.
For Child Name Servers or Private Name servers, please modify IPs in your domain panel as we are using new IPs for name server on new server.
ns3.cloudhostdns.net 103.35.164.169
ns4.cloudhostdns.net 103.35.164.169
Important: There will be no data loss during this process. However, we request you to take the backup at your end from your cPanel > Files > Backup Wizard. Please don’t upload anything on server/website during the migration process.
Expected Downtime: As such, there will be no downtime for your website and email. But in case any technical issue occurs, then there may be a downtime of 6 to 12 hours.
Communication Plan: Our helpdesk will be fully functional and staffed during the migration. We will keep posting periodic updates in the announcements section and on znetlivestatus.com to keep you fully informed of the status of migration process. Please do not use our emergency contact numbers during the migration, as it will slow down the migration process.
Thanking you in anticipation of your co-operation and support in our endeavor of serving you with the best in class services.
