I’m using google cloud for hosting. I have created VM CentOS with static IP and installed Plesk Web Host Edition. I used google cloud DNS and pointed my domain to google name server.

Now xyz.abc domain is pointing to 1.2.3.4 static ip. The issue is I want to host my abc.xyz domain with it. I don’t know which name server I should point to it.

How do I configure it?

  1. Basically, you have to delegate your domain to Google Cloud DNS and add an A record like abc.xyz. A 1.2.3.4 (note the extra dot). Specific details can be found at docs and various tutorials:

    • adding a domain (you have to set name servers on the domain registrar side afterwards)
      • specific how-to for setting name servers depends on the domain registrar
    • working with records (but actually they showed how to add the record via GUI in the video above)

  2. From your description, you are hosting multiple virtual host webserver in the same GCP Instance using Plesk Web Host Edition. The challenge is: having a single IP address, how to manage different DNS for each webserver?

    To be able to do that, first you need to understand how Plesk Multi Server map different DNS requests and have your Cloud DNS have multiple A records pointing to the same Instance Public IP. Here is how to Manage Records in Cloud DNS.
