2.2.6 Changing the country of the hosting account
Important points:
- Run migrations at times of low site traffic.
- The country is changed for the entire hosting account. If you need to change the country for an individual site, order a separate hosting account, reschedule site to it and migrate it.
- Migration may be temporarily unavailable when ordering or migrating to a businesshosting.
- Migration is not available for hosting accounts with ordered dedicated IP. Migration requires settings all sites in the hosting account to switch to a common IP and disable all ordered dedicated IPs.
- The availability of sites during migration depends on the selected mode of blocking sites during migration.
- During the migration, read access will be restored to all files of the hosting account on behalf of the owner of this hosting account.
- After the migration at connecting via SSH errors may occur "REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED" and "POSSIBLE DNS SPOOFING". Use the appropriate instructions to eliminate them.
