We will be performing an upgrade of the shared hosting platform nodes below on the following dates:

  • SH2 - 05/03/2026 20:00
  • SH1 - 19/03/2026 20:00

Which server is my domain on?

There will be a period of downtime on each node throughout its upgrade. Services affected are as follows:

What IS affected:

  • Websites hosted on each node
  • Email accounts hosted on each node
  • Access to manage DNS records and other control panel functions

What is NOT affected:

  • DNS resolution for hosted domains - although the configuration of DNS is managed on this platform, live queries are handled by other servers
  • Websites or emails hosted outside of each node (Microsoft 365, Azure etc..)

Updates will be provided throughout the upgrade process, with final confirmation once the upgrade is complete. If you have any questions related to this upgrade, please get in touch with our team via usual support contact methods (https://www.wessexit.com/contact/).
