Before you start

Decide whether the change is a server default, account creation policy, or an override for one existing domain/account.

Embedded and separate settings

Server cache defaults are embedded in the Apache/Nginx settings pages. Backup schedules, thresholds, and enterprise integration live under Server > Backup. DNS zone work belongs in DNS Manager; the advanced DNS configuration editor is not a standard Configuration menu link in the current interface.

How to use it

  1. Choose the area that owns the requested behavior.
  2. Read the specific reference, including Save versus Apply and service impact.
  3. Change the intended scope only and verify the result in the relevant account/service.

Result and next check

The setting is changed in its actual current location and its effect is verified at the correct scope.
