We need to replace our two nameservers (NC033 and NC035) in short order. Under normal circumstances this would be a seamless operation, of which we could just notify you after the fact. However, we always notify you of planned maintenance in advance anyway, but in this case we are under a tight deadline to do this due to changed requirements at our secondary mail relay service.
Our plan is to carry out this operation over the next few hours. It’s unclear whether SMTP2GO’s deadline is in the UTC time zone or in New Zealand where the company is located. If the deadline is in the UTC time zone then we’ll be finished long before the deadline. There will be no downtime, but if there is any interruption if will be for some outbound email. We will work to avoid this and implement workarounds if necessary.
There will be a new look with a new control panel next time you log into dns.niner.net. In one of our next few posts we will post screenshots of the new control panel so that you know what to expect.
If you have any questions, please contact NinerNet support. We will post updates as necessary as work progresses. Thank-you.
