How do I create a subdomain with rackspace?

I have a site I need to create a subdomain for, managed by rackspace cloud.

The domain is already setup and online. I just need to copy the current www.mysite.com to lab.mysite.com.

How do I go about doing this?

Do I add the subdomain in the cloud sites listing, or under the listing for the domain?

And where do I copy the files to? The current site is at /www.mysite.com/web/content on the ftp.

Solution

  • When you login to the control panel at Rackspace, you can add subdomains by creating new sites like you would with a regular site. There's more information in the Cloud Sites Knowledge Base: Creating Sub-domains and/or Domain Aliases
