I just noticed, when I changed the hostname to new server name. Let's say NEW.SERVERHOSTNAME.

And then through WHM I restarted the DNS server, the WHM show result below, where its still mentioned the OLD.SERVERNAME :

Any idea to make it show the new hostname?

Waiting for “named” to start ……waiting for “named” to initialize ………finished.

Service Status
named (/usr/sbin/named -u named -c /etc/named.conf) is running as named with PID 11003 (systemd+/proc check method).
