• 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.

Export/import of site with forwarding uses 2 IP addresses

RationalPolymer

Basic Pleskian
When backing up via Panel one or more sites where they contain a "forwarding subsite" for Plesk Panel-12.0.18 server A and then importing/restoring those site backups into Panel-12.0.18 server B, the import/restore process displays and requires confirmation on 2 IP addresses: the hosted site IP and the server main/primary IP from Panel server A. I understand and know how to deal with the site IP during import/restore but don't understand why there is a 2nd IP based on the Panel server A main/primary IP address.

In the site+forwarding INFO XML (site backup) file there are two "<ip>" declarations. In a site with NO forwarding there is only one "<ip>" declaration. Why?

Also, the net affect of this is that the site+forwarding restoration creates a "webspace" plus a "subscription" when the site originally was a single "subscription".
