    Will DNS records need to be updated or do they remain the same as we are currently using?

    Will the IP address change?

    Nameservers update will depend on the account. In case it will be needed, we will open a ticket personally for account owner.

    Anyway, we will forward old nameservers to the new server, so no downtime will take place.

    Yes, IP address will change.

    Is there a way of knowing the IP in advance? One of our accounts on Nelly points to the server via "@" records. We'll need to update the IP address for the switch.

    All of our accounts on Nelly have dedicated private IPs . . . I assume the new ones will also be dedicated.

    I can't provide you with shared IP right now. Even if I do and you forward the domain, it won't work, since data is not there yet.

    We will update this thread once migration is finished. For some time (probably a week or two) both old and new servers will work, so you will have time to perform nameservers switch and A records updates.

    GDufresne -

    If any of your accounts require special handling, please open a ticket and let us know about it so we can try to migrate it separately so that you can do whatever it is that you need to do with the special DNS setup you have.
