URGENT: Updating DNS records in bulk

[Eric Pretorious]

My VPS provider (BitronicTech) has changed the IP addreses assigned to my VPS and, as a result, all of the DNS entries are incorrect.

Is there a way to update the IP addresses all DNS records at once? e.g., Change all of the resource records (RR's) associated with a specific shared IP address?

After manually reassigning the IP addresses of each subscription...

Subscriptions -> Example.com -> Change Hosting Settings

Plesk warns:

New files of configuration for Apache web server were not built due to errors in configuration templates: nginx: [emerg] bind() to 66.232.99.58:80 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address) nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed . The detailed error message was e-mailed to you, so please check the e-mail, fix the errors, and click here to retry generating broken configuration or click here to retry generating of all configurations.

...so, after reading the "detailed error message [that] was e-mailed to [me]":

Unable to generate the web server configuration file on the host <www.example.com> because of the following errors:

nginx: [emerg] bind() to 66.232.99.58:80 failed (99: Cannot assign requested address)
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed


Please resolve the errors in web server configuration templates and generate the file again.

...and verifying that there were no subscriptions that were using the OLD IP addresses (e.g., 66.232.99.58), I removed the OLD IP addresses...

Tools & Settings -> Toosl & Resources: IP Addresses

...and regernerated the broken configuration (by clicking the hypertext in the warning) but Apache/HTTPD still isn't listening on Port 80:

Rebooting the server seems to have fixed the situation.
