Hi, this seems like a small thing. Put up a maintenance page while I’m fiddling with my site.
In your experience what’s the best way to do this on DO?
Change DNS to new IP?
Move IP to new Droplet?
Thanks

Hello dear.
Change DNS to new IP? Please run putty or ssh and connect to your server with root then
Use “PEERDNS=no”. This option will prevent /etc/resolv.conf from being modified by a DHCP server. So instead of using DHCP-provided DNS, you can specify any arbitrary DNS servers you want to use in /etc/resolv.conf.
The configuration file for your network interface (e.g., eth0) looks like the following.
Press enterfor continue for delete u can use of x button on keyboard and then ESC after it use i for edit .conf file and after edit click Esc and then type :wq for save changes((for more help edit file please click here))
