Top news. January 2018

In January we made some improvements to the backup system in ISPmanager and modules in DCImanager, introduced a number of new integrations in BILLmanager. We also planned a meeting with our partners at CloudFest. Read our digest for more news from ISPsystem.

If you are planning to purchase an SSL certificate for 3 years, you’ll need to hurry up. All Certification Authorities will no longer issue 3-year SSL certificates. After February, 20 2018 GeoTrust, RapidSSL, Symantec and Thawte SSL certificates for 3 years won’t be available for order. Starting on March 1, 2018, you will no longer be able to purchase 3-year Comodo SSL certificates.

Starting from version 5.136 trial licenses for ISPsystem software products will be available only for registered customers. This new policy will be applied to new and existing ISPmanager, BILLmanager, DCImanager and VMmanager trial licenses. The new activation procedure will be applied for the panels already running on servers after they update to version 5.136. It will be displayed only to administrators. User won’t see any changes.

Superuser backup. In the “Tools” section — “Backups” you can manage backup copies of the root user. A root backup includes panel system data. Now you can download, restore, and roll back the recovery. (5.138.0)

Number of backup copies. You can select the number of full and differential backup copies. In case of insufficient disk space, the oldest differential copy will be deleted; the last full copy will be kept. If there is no free space on the whole storage, the system won’t change old backups. (5.137.0)

Files in backup copies. Backup files in a storage and directory are now distributed into subdirectories regardless the username and date. This allows restoring files for a required date. (5.136.0)

Changes to Nginx-proxy. To set up the module, navigate to “Domains” — “WWW-domains”. The module is connected only to the existing web-domain with SSL certificate. When using a proxy domain, all traffic will be calculated for the domain owner. (5.138.0)

IPMI proxy via ihttpd. This function can be set up in a separate section and allows server owners with IPMI, having internal IP addresses, to access IPMI web-interfaces via ihttpd. Proxy is supported for Supermicro and HP (iLO 2). Learn more. (5.136.0)

Server search. This function can be also set up in a separate module. If the server search option was activated in the previous version of your control panel, the module will be installed and configured automatically. You can set the following search parameters: IP address, mask, main gateway, range, password, location, etc. For more information refer to this article . (5.136.0)

New module “IPMI console”. It allows to use the IPMI console (the jnlp file) directly from DCImanager web-interface. After the file is uploaded, a user will only need to open it with the javaws utility or by double-click. Supported devices: Supermicro, Dell, HP (iLO4), IntelBMC. For more technical details, please read this article. (5.136.0)

Integration with Namecheap. Introduced integration with Namecheap for selling domain names and SSL certificates. (5.136.0)

Integration with CyberPlat. Introduced integration with CyberPlat. To connect this payment system, you can use your current account with CyperPlat, or register a new one via BILLmanager. (5.138.0)

Block registration by TLD. The billing system can now block registrations by Top-level domains. (5.136.0)
