Question Change FQDN of running plesk installation

Oliver Marugg

Basic Pleskian
Hi

I installed my plesk instance with a then choosen hostname and domain, but it's up und running but the fqdn doesnt really fit my needs (customers etc.).

If I want to change the hostname and its FQDN, what will be a good and valuable solution doing this (without reinstall)?

Any ideas?

Just go to Tools & Settings > Server Settings and fill in the Full hostname field.
Or in CLI:

# plesk bin server_pref --update -hostname host.example.com
