  • 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 New Server Migration (CentOS 7 or 8 or ubuntu 20)?

Hello everybody,

I'm migrating from ubuntu 16, I'm in doubt of choosing the next distro.
Can you give me suggestions?
thanks
 
my problem with ubuntu is: I have tried to perform the upgrade from 16 to 18 and it was a disaster, a lot of errors that I'm considering starting elsewhere to avoid such disastrous upgrade.
I haven't used yum before, but if it is more stable and the future upgrade is seamless, I would consider it right now
 
Upgrades to new Version of Ubuntu or of any System (Windows too...) can always go wrong, thats why Is better to always do a Backup before doing that.
A good advise was already given by @IgorG .
Im currently use Ubuntu for Plesk Installations.
Ubuntu is very good for beginners and has high flexibility. CentOS is good for long operations but require knowledge (for my point).
