Server Migration

Over the next few days, Keith and I will be working hard on migrating the systems over to a new server. The move should be relatively quick and painless, but as always there is the chance for hiccups along the way.

This move will affect all hosted services for up to 48 hours depending on the frequency with which your DNS resolvers update their cache (we use OpenDNS for our computers). There will be no data loss for any services, including webmail, ftp, databases and file structure.

We will also be taking this opportunity to widdle away some more at our inactive hosting accounts. We will still have backups of all inactive accounts for the next 4 months, but after that point we will erase all memory of them from the server.

The new server is running a Core 2 Duo E6700 (2.66Ghz with 4MB L2 Cache), 2GB of RAM, a 400GB hard drive, and is sitting on premier Savvis pipes in Atlanta. The new server will be faster, more secure, and just generally easier for everyone to use.

I'll post again after the migration is completed, wish us luck!
