bornslippy.nuxx.net -> rez.nuxx.net

July 28, 2005

Hey everyone… It looks like I’m going to be installing rez.nuxx.net in the colocation facility tomorrow. I’ll have just under a week to move things over from the current server, bornslippy.nuxx.net.

So, if I host stuff for you, you should pay attention to this. In short, if you have a message board, photo gallery, or anything which ties uses the database (MySQL) there is a good chance that there will be some reconfiguring needed in order to get things back in order. This is because I’m changing around the paths to where data is stored.

Additionally, there is likely to be some downtime while websites, databases, email, and other such things are moved.

I will be going through the sites one at a time in an attempt to ensure that everything is running smoothly. If you find that something isn’t working right, please contact me via AIM or telephone so that we can sort it out.

There should be no loss of data — be it email, web, or in a database — and I’m going to try to make things go as smoothly as possible, but there could be some bumps. So, again, if things arne’t working quite right, please let me know and we can sort it out.

Also, I’ll post updates here as things get moved over. As long as your DNS points to ns1.nuxx.net and ns2.nuxx.net everything should transition smoothly.

So, keep an eye out and hopefully things will be running even better by this time next week.
