    11/16/07 - cpanel38 Upgrade

    ATTN ALL customers located on cpanel38, please read and understand this entire thread thoroughly.

    On November 16th starting at around 5PM CST cpanel38 will be upgraded to new hardware.

    Instead of being on cpanel38, users will now be on cpanel64.

    Server: cpanel64.gzo.com - 74.86.230.2
    Shared Hosting IP: 74.86.232.128
    DNS #1: dns127.gzo.com - 74.86.232.129
    DNS #2: dns128.gzo.com - 74.86.233.72

    IMPORTANT
    Anyone that has custom nameservers or that has used the cpanel38 DNS IP addresses (70.85.53.212 and 70.85.61.17) for anything will need to update their entries to the new nameservers and IPs listed above.

    To avoid all possible downtime on your domains, do not make any DNS changes until we have confirmed here in the forums that the cpanel38 account transfers have been completed.

    Those that are using the cpanel38 gzo.com nameservers (dns19/dns20 or dns75/dns76) without IPs, do not need to change anything. They will be updated to the new IPs automatically.

    We advise all users to disable anything involving MySQL updates (order forms, forums, CMS, etc.) until it is up and running on the new server. This will avoid updates being lost during the transfer and ending up with a database that is out of sync. If this is not an option, you can leave everything active, cpanel38 will still be online for a few days following the upgrade. But you will be responsible for transferring any database updates that might be needed.

    Once again, if you have any questions or comments, please submit a trouble ticket.

    Note that as a result of this upgrade you will no longer be able to access WHM on cpanel38.

    All cpanel38 customers should now be able to login to WHM on cpanel64 with the same login information as they used for cpanel38. Please do not do anything with this yet, however, as the domain accounts have not been transfered yet.

    If you login to the customer control panel and view your welcome e-mail, it should now list cpanel64 as your server.

    We're now transfering accounts from cpanel38 to cpanel64. This process may take 24 hours or so to complete.

      All accounts have now been transfered. You should now change your DNS/nameservers to the new cpanel64 nameservers if necessary.

      You may need to re-install SSL certificates on the new server (cpanel64). If you purchased one from us simply submit a ticket and we can re-install it for you.

      If you encounter any further problems, please submit a trouble ticket.
