Nameservers are a bit harder to renumber, but that's not too bad.
When you have hundreds of virtual web sites?
Uhm, sure. Just slowly decrease the TTL on your name server until you are ready to renumber (and the TTL is set to something ridiculously low such as 1 minute). The customers will then experience something like a 1 minute outage when you renumber. If we are going to start getting into the procedures of HOW to renumber this should likely move to the PIER mailing list. I think if in general people become more interested in HOW to gracefully renumber themselves and their customers instead of worrying about how hard it is to do they would see that while it is work, it isn't really all that hard.
