All host commands: (check) (create) (delete) (info) (modify)
Updating a host involves adding or removing the information that currently set within the host. That is why the host:update command only allows <host:add> and <host:rem> elements. To change an IP address associated with a nameserver, you can remove and add it in the same command.
The host:update command only works for nameservers that you are allowed to change, this means that also the domain name associated with these nameservers must be in your account. Otherwise, you will not be able to alter nameserver information.
To update a host you use the update->host:update command. The example below removes address 1.2.3.4 and adds two new addresses.
