    It's not possible that removing an IP will remove other IPs as well. Try restarting ipaliases service and see if those IPs responds.

    I just tried to delete a single IP address that wasn't being used by any site. However after deletion half the IP addresses installed on the server that DO have sites attached to them have also been removed, and as a result all those sites are now down!!

    WHY???

    Did you remove the first ip in a subnet by chance?

    I did, however the warning message it gave me before hand said I was deleting a leader IP and that only 1 IP address (eth7) would be restarted. eth1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are on a completely different subnet.

    Yeah the problem is now sorted thanks, however it just made me panic when half the sites stopped working and the IP list was shorter than expected. :)

    Is there any reason why this happened? Is it a bug?

    That's quite strange, however, looking at the ipaliases output, it seems your IPs are back online. Did you still see the IP in the list you want to remove from the server? If yes, you can remove the IP manually. Edit the file

    remove the IP and restart the ipaliases service
