nameservers_required

Spacefast holds this domain's registration, so it leaves Spacefast DNS only by delegating to other nameservers.

Spacefast holds this domain’s registration, so it leaves Spacefast DNS only by delegating to other nameservers.

How to resolve: Set the nameservers to delegate to with PUT /v1/domains/{domainId}/nameservers or sf domains nameservers set. That moves the domain to external DNS.
