I hope this explains better what I'm saying. If changes are never synced, a DNS cluster isn't effective.

Any subsequent changes made to the zone are never synced to the other servers.

That zone is only mirrored/synced to DO when a "Sync All Zones" action is triggered manually.

Any subsequent changes made to the zone on the Plesk server are also synced to the other servers.That zone is mirrored/synced automatically to all DNS servers in the cluster.Subscription is created, including needed DNS records, on the Plesk server.To explain further, a typical DNS cluster situation happens this way: So, of course, a DNS cluster isn't very useful if DNS changes are never, ever synced to the other servers in the cluster. But any further modifications to the zone on the Plesk server are not synced to DO. The only time that a zone is actually synced is the first time after it is created (and then only when a sync is initiated manually). Even if you initiate a sync manually, the modifications are NOT reflected on DigitalOcean. However, the new thread refers to what happens when a DNS zone is modified. (And the description of the DigitalOcean DNS extension says that it does it "automatically".) I was surprised that it was necessary to request that this happen automatically because that is not just a feature, it is the expected behavior of any typical DNS clustering situation.when a domain is created, it is mirrored automatically to the other servers in the cluster. That only happens when a sync is initiated manually. At that time the new DNS zone is NOT sent to the DigitalOcean DNS servers. The other thread referred to the behavior when a new subscription is created on the Plesk server. Yes, I saw the answer in that thread, but this is a different issue and a huge bug IMHO. I know there is a Slave DNS extension, but this one has several advantages and would be a better choice for some people if not for these shortcomings. I'd really love to see this extension work as it's implied to, for example the description says it "automatically" syncs, whereas a sync only happens when "Sync all zones" is clicked manually. To us as a hosting provider, that makes it unusable (along with the fact that it doesn't sync automatically when a new subscription is created).

I'm not sure why an extension like this wouldn't actually sync any changes. So it looks like this extension only syncs when a zone is created.

Click "Sync all zones" to "Synchronize the information about all zones between Plesk and DigitalOcean.".

Make any changes or additons in the DNS zone in Plesk.

Manually initiate a sync to add the domain zone to DO (although I really wish this step was automatic).

We've found a huge problem with this extension: performing a sync (to sync the DNS records between Plesk and DigitalOcean's DNS system) doesn't actually sync any changes!
