DNS Creator is a utility that re-creates DNS data to new DNS servers.
Use this utility to republish DNS data to a different box or add an extra DNS server.
To create DNS:
- Log into your control panel server as the cpanel user.
- Run DNS Creator:
java psoft.hsphere.tools.DNSCreator -m creation_method [-dz] [-z zonename]
-m creation method. Possible values: db or rand
db - pick NS servers as they are defined in the H-Sphere database
rand - pick NS servers randomly
-dz|--delete_zones - delete zones first. Add this option only if such zones already exist.
With this option, DNS creation will take at least twice more time.
-lids|--logical-servers - process zones which are on the logical servers with the specified IDs.
-pip|--pServerIP - specifies a physical server by its primary IP. All necessary logical
server IDs are chosen automatically. Often -pip is used as an alternative to -lids.
-z|--zone - recreate only one specified zone. Without this option, all zones will be recreated.
Note: If both lids and -z parameters are specified, the -z parameter will be ignored.
Note: If you are adding an extra DNS server, specify -m rand or else this new
DNS server will be available only for new signups.
Please be patient.
If you have hundreds of domains, this utility might take hours to execute.
