To send a subdomain like app.yourdomain.com to a different server, create or edit its DNS record in cPanel's Zone Editor (your domain must use Toshost nameservers).
- Open Zone Editor and click Manage next to
yourdomain.com. - Click + Add Record.
- To point to an IP address, choose type A, set the name to
app, and enter the target server's IP. - To point to a hostname, choose type CNAME, set the name to
app, and enter the destination hostname. - Save the record.
If a subdomain of the same name already exists on your account, edit or remove its old record first so there's no conflict. Changes apply after DNS propagation. Need help confirming the right target? Open a ticket.
