Server rank transfer?

My dayz server is rank 90th right now.. and I'm downgrading to a VPS, from a dedi box. My hoster will not let me keep my ip, and I was just wondering what I'd have to do to get my rank switched to the new IP?

The VPS isn't set up right now. Will be going shortly..

Thanks.

The DNS feature is the only way to move rank. You'd need to claim the server and set up a DNS address in the "Manage" area. Once you do so, if GT detects a change in IP in the DNS to the new one, it will adjust the IP of the page. Note, this will not work if you have different ports.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

I have done what you said.. It still hasn't transfered.

Does the old server have to be offline?

We resolve the DNS name daily. If this server stops responding to stats requests, then we resolve the DNS name more frequently.
