SuperSite Impact
The following files will be modified as part of the launch:
Check Availability.html: Manage Site » Edit/Translate Content Pages » Products » Domain » Domain_registration » Check_availibilty » Check_availibility.html
Dom_reg_addorder.html: Manage Site » Edit/Translate Content Pages » Products » Domain » Domain_registration » Dom_reg_addorder » Dom_reg_addorder.html

Please Note: Your SuperSite will continue to function normally without these changes. However, if you would like Multi Year Pricing to be displayed on your SuperSite, you will need to update the above the mentioned files.
Deprecation of Customer Slabs
As we had announced earlier, Customers Slabs will be deprecated and will be replaced with the ability to set Multi Year Pricing. The Customer Slabs that you have created will be removed on the 29th and only the Base Slab will be left intact. Post the launch you will be able to set prices for Customers based on the tenure that the Product is purchased for.
Hello Reseller,
Over the past few days, LB have noticed a few memory exception errors on one of their Windows web hosting servers. This is probably due to some specific sites hogging up the resources on this server. As a result of this, a few other clients have been intermittently experiencing insufficient memory exceptions on their websites.
Being a shared hosting environment, we are trying to isolate the sites affecting the overall server performance, and provide them some additional sets of resources. To obtain more information on an individual site performance and logs, we are taking a few measures, which will have some minor impacts on your sites hosted here.
Following are the details of measures taken by us and respective impact on your website:
1. A separate centralized logging system on the server
Impact: Your websites’ web logging (http logs) will be disabled for the time being.
2. Split all the websites under different application pools – to monitor specific site’s performance
Impact: This will not have any impact on your website resolution
3. Limiting concurrent number of connections to 100, for each website.
Impact: Based on the existing set of information, you may not experience any service interruptions. However, in case your website exceeds the set limit (100 concurrent connections); you might see the message “Service Unavailable”, for a few seconds.
Should you receive this message, please do inform our support help desk via support ticket. The exercise is being performed this weekend and the limitations shall be in place until Tuesday – 24/05/2010.
We regret the inconvenience you may experience on account of this, and request your kind cooperation to help us get to the root cause of the problem and ensure uninterrupted services.
For any additional information, kindly contact our support help desk.

Multi Year Pricing – From 22nd May, 2010
As announced previously, LB will be launching Multi Year Pricing on the 22nd of May, 2010. Using this new tool you can incentivize Customers to purchase Domains for multiple years.
Impact on Customer Slabs:
As part of this launch, we will be deprecating all Customers Slabs.
Impact on Specific Pricing:
Post the launch on the 22nd, Specific Pricing will have the highest priority for Customers. A Customer for whom you have set a Specific Price will always be charged that price regardless of the Promo Price or Telescopic Price that is available. In case there is no Specific Price set, your Customer will be charged the lower price between the Promo Price and Telescopic Price.
However, the implementation for Resellers and Sub-Resellers will not be affected by this launch. They will continue to be charged the lowest available price between the Specific Price, Promo Price and regular Slab based Price.
We will send across more information on this launch across the week, including the SuperSite and PartnerSite changes.
