Now I can't see your problem anymore. If your customers already are
located on your own server, and you control dns -- then it only takes
a few minutes to transfer their domain to a new ip.

Just set their TTL values low (very low) - wait the specified time -
and change their addresses. The effect would be almost instant.

I don't know. I can ask him tomorrow, if he has the answer on hand.
