New Servers > Migrate stats and rank?

Hi GT-Team,

I plan to move my servers to a new IP-Address. As I saw already, it is possible to migrate the player stats with the new-server, but is it also possible to migrate the Rank too? The old server will be shutdown after movement.

regards

You'd have to make use of the DNS feature. This would involve pointing a domain or subdomain to the current server, adding that to the old page, and then just updating the IP of the DNS when it needs to change. GT will periodically check for changes.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

It works pretty fine with the DNS, but one additional question: How to keep rank if Port is changed?

You would not be able to keep rank in that instance. You'd have to add the new IP Port, and then migrate the historical stats only.
