Server move tonight or tomorrow (10/09 or 10/10/09)!
Just a heads up to everyone that there will be a server move within the next week or two. They are building my new one right now.
The hard drive space on my main server has been hitting 87 percent full lately, and it's just time to get fresh components anyway. Bigger, faster, and hopefully BETTER. The RAID 0 SAS 300gb drives should hold us for a while, and the 12gb of main RAM should help a lot. Hopefully that will compensate for merging my two servers into one. But of course these things are never painless. I'll try to give you all as much notice as I can, but I'm up against a timeline to try to get this done before the bills are due on the two servers I am going to consolidate into the new one. Yeah, I've got to tighten the belt too these days. |
Hey Rich, what are you using for the new server?????

That should make things a little quicker. Will this be a standalone (or single racked) server, or a blade chassis? In any case, it should be better than what you've got presently, and SHOULD be a whole lot better when the transfer is complete. Andy :wavey: |
This will be my dedicated leased server. But I am consolidating two servers together into this single box. My other server has a few rather high traffic sites on it, so I'm hoping the higher horsepower rating of the new box will mitigate the increased load in a single server.
We shall see, I guess.... |

Sheesh... This is taking longer than I had expected, so now there is a real good chance I'm going to be paying both for the old servers AND the new server this month. Rats..... :nonod:
