Hello, Does is recommended to create a CPanel account using the hostname parent domain?
Normally we never did this in the past but recently our data center ask us to setup a website in our hostname parent domain so they can configure PTR records as a policy to avoid spammers.
Example:
Hostname: server.example.com
Parent Domain CPanel account: example.com
I have check the WHM/CPanel documentation but its not clear if this is ok or recommended, I found this:
docs.cpanel.net
Thanks!

Change Hostname | cPanel & WHM Documentation
This interface allows you to change your server's hostname.

- Do not choose a hostname that a cPanel account on your server will use.
Thanks!
