Title: Server changeover started
Post by: Josetann on October 06, 2006, 04:53:27 PM
We're migrating to the new server now.  Due to the awesome powers of your admin, you should notice absolutely zero downtime.  If there is downtime, this message will be edited to blame someone else.

So basically what did you change?

Well, that didn't work out as planned.  It should be back up now, had some issues with mysql, then with php, who knows what'll pop up next.  The forum may run a little slow, don't worry about that, it's still pulling data from the old server.  We'll get that switched over in the middle of the night, because it will cause a few minutes of downtime (we're keeping planned downtime to a minimum, though we've apparently had a bit of unplanned downtime, sorry bout that).

We moved it to a new server, a dual opteron with 2GB ram and a SCSI hard drive.  Should improve performance.  If not then instead of using the old server just for backup, we'll do some load balancing.
