Bigger Server Ordered

Tue Dec 19, 2006 8:35:21 PM #30272 Perm Link

I've contacted the datacenter and they are setting up a beefier server to host the sites with dual hard drives and other nice things.

Expect speed and space increases. Yummy.

2014 is going to be a good year. More content, more streamlining. Be a part of history!

The site isn't exactly slow as it is...

Michael: Jodie, how's my schedule look for today?
Jodie: You've got a conference and dinner party at the Japanese Embassy regarding wildlife protection.
Michael: Oh, yeah...sorry, but I'll have to cancel that. I'm heading out to save America!

Yeah, but better to beef things up before you start having those sorts of issues.

Plus... more RAM will really help in high loads.

More speed is always a good thing. I look forward to when the site gets hammered with people on the forums.

Hopefully it happens soon.

I don't think it's necessary, but it certainly couldn't hurt.

As an update: The server is nearly ready for me to start moving stuff over. It'll be a few days before I can actually get the server up to the right software and such for my needs.

So will there be any downtime for the site during transition or a relatively seemless changeover?

Seamless except for DNS. I'll make it known when both servers are up if you are on the old one because the site won't work Smile

how can it be seamless ? posting to the old server must be disabled when the data is transferred, so basically before you transfer. I don't understand how it can be done without a wee downtime or read-only time.
