• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Decommisioning Plesk

I have replaced our old CentOS 5.11 primary DNS server running Plesk 12.5 with a new server.

This new server has an unlimited Plesk license through the VPS-provider.
This new CentOS 7.4 server is running Plesk Onyx 17.8 and it has taken over all jobs but one...

On the old server we have a website running which I tried to migrate several times without success.
The webmaster of that site will make a new one for that client, but it's not yet finished.

The client pays us about € 10,- for hosting that site, but we need to pay more than 10 times that much for having that server. A big part of that cost price is for the unlimited Plesk license (it has all the domains on it for DNS).

Is it possible to limit the damage by revoking the license key and stop using Plesk on it with the goal of keeping that website alive?
 
@IgorG
I would really like to know what happens to the server if I revoke the Plesk license...
What I'm seeking is stopping Plesk management (and stopping payments) and continuation of the only website it is now running.
