*** When setting up WHM / cPanel on a new server, and if you are using the same FQDN for your name servers as you may be migrating over to another server , there is a chance that what WHM sees as the allocated IP's is still the prior IP allocation.

This assumes you have already updated your domain registration host file config with the new IP's as well as update any zone file "A" records to reference your FQDN new IP's....

The resolution was to run the noted script below :

Got it !

*** Found this in the cPanel Forums ...

What fixed it was running this script :

/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/updatenameserverips

Here is how name servers work in 11.30 and up :

We had received clarification on the Nameserver IPs feature, and the nameserverips.yaml file from our developers. I wanted to share this to clarify the intended behavior.

The functionality of the "Nameserver IPs" page was changed in 11.30. It is now a report, and not a page meant to configure any aspect of DNS. It reports the nameservers used by zones on the server, as well as a count of the the number of zones that use a given nameserver.

The nameserverips.yaml file is automatically updated, and not meant to be altered by hand. It is a cache file, rather than a configuration file. Neither should the /etc/nameserverips file be altered manually. The script /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/updatenameserverips populates the yaml file automatically. This script retrieves the information it populates the yaml file with by scanning the zones on the server for NS records, then using /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/quickdnslookup to get the IP.

The correct way of updating the information on Nameserver IPs is through the "Basic cPanel & WHM Setup" page, and to ensure a proper DNS configuration. If the Nameserver IPs page is presenting incorrect information when DNS is set up correctly, this is a bug and should be reported via a support ticket.
