ATTENTION: CF will be upgrading hardware and changing datacenters...

We don't know yet. Erwin said he'd give us an adequate notice when the time comes.

Thank you I'll keep checking back . . . this is where we'll be notified???

Can't wait! Can't wait!

Our image server will be a Dual Xeon. But all the other servers are AMD - Opterons are way better (apparently). Our main webserver is a dual processor, dual core Opteron (almost like a quad Opteron).

Sounds nice to me! So when you gonna make the move?

 

[Theresasjourney]

Ok Erwin~~just try and give us a couple of days heads up warning~~

 

[euphoria]

This hasn't happened yet? Will keep checking.... good luck, Erwin.

It won't happen for another week I think. Don't get too anxious.

As not everyone gets over here that often, could the mods be asked to post a thread in their sections to notify everyone?

Every time the site slows down I panic and think, "Oh no! He's shutting the site down already! Not yet! Not yet! I have just one more post!! ahhh!!!"

 

[euphoria]

You better do this while I'm sound asleep, Erwin.

 

[MeekOne]

Too late! We're already anxious.

Just in case the anxious haven't seen this yet...

Please start posting threads for yourselves!

No need to be anxious folks...and when Erwin is done upgrading our beloved forum will be all the better for it! Thanks, Erwin!

This is going to happen this weekend.

HOWEVER - the downtime will be minimal because I'm going to try a new-fangled way of migrating to the new server - the downtime will really only be time to freeze the database from new posts so that it is copied to our new database server, then the current webservers can point to it.

In other words, downtime will be approximately 20 minutes at the most of not being able to post new posts.

That's my prediction at the moment - pray that nothing goes wrong!
