Question

What domains are counted for a Plesk license domain limit?

Answer

All domains added in Plesk are counted for domain limit indicated on your Plesk license:

  • active domains.
  • disabled domains.
  • domains with Forwarding hosting type.
  • domains without hosting.

Note: subdomains and domain aliases are not counted for domain limit if they were created with Add Subdomain or Add Domain Alias in Domains > example.com:

2017_11_30_19_15_56_example.com_Plesk_Onyx_17.5.3.png

Note: in case the subdomain, e.g. sub.example.com has been created via Add Domain button, it will be counted in domain limit as a separate domain.

    Hello,

    I'm wondering the following, I currently use the Plesk Web pro Edition on my Ubuntu servers which has an 30 domains limit. For my customers I create subdomains for my website, which I add in Plesk as domain (but would work as subdomain) (I add it as an domain so I can give it it's own customer), in the domain list it gets detected as 'website'. Does this counts as domain with the domain limit too? Since it technically isn't an actual domain but an subdomain. 


    Thank you!

    @Thijs  If you created it as domain in Plesk so it will be counted as domain.

    Hi @Luis Zubeldia!

    I was not able to reproduce this behavior, using Web Admin license with 10 domains limit I create more then 15 sub-domains  with the following API query:

    <subdomain> 
     <add> 
      <parent>example.com</parent> 
      <name>subdomain14</name> 
     </add> 
    </subdomain>

    Could you let me know the Plesk version in case the issue is actual with the same API request?

    theses Subdomains have their own subscriptions. seems that they are counted as fulll domain for licence.

    Could you please clarify what API request you use to create a subdomain?

    Also, may I know Plesk version you are running?
