puzzling.org server migration complete
Monday, June 2nd, 2008The puzzling.org server is now located in a California data centre and all should have returned to normal.
The puzzling.org server is now located in a California data centre and all should have returned to normal.
The puzzling.org server will move to a new data centre (in California rather than Texas) sometime within the next twelve hours. Nothing other than latency should change for existing users, but there will be substantial (perhaps more than an hour) downtime.
We’ll be shutting down the Redwood Virtual server soon, please let me know ASAP if there is something wrong with the new server, particularly missing data.
The last of the sites, users.puzzling.org in fact (difficult because I had to set up the mail on the new server), has been moved to the linode server.
Noone but Andrew and myself can even login to the old server now.
Ok, eyes is over (with a closing down message), somewhat is over. i.am and everything.is.strange.and is over.
This leaves daize, abstraktn and users, so a few more database dumps and WordPress migrations to go.

I’m going to close down eyes over the next few days, and then the big push to get the last of you lot moved.

Next up: perpetuity, eyes and mafioso, probably in that order. After that we’re left with: abstraktn; daize; everything.is.strange.and; i.am; somewhat and users, all of which will require my having mail infrastructure all ready to go…

I’ll probably do totalwhatever and allovertheworld tonight, but you know, I should see Prague.
For the record, the old IP address was 66.160.135.126 and the new one is 70.85.16.132.

Unfortunately I forgot to reset the DNS timeout on buglinks, so I’ve got 24 hours left before I can check if it works.
All other sites are still on the old host. Next up (tomorrow, or more likely Tuesday):
allovertheworld.puzzling.org
frideswide.puzzling.org
sue.gardiner.id.au
The sites of users who also have logins and regularly use them will be done [...]
I’ve moved these sites:
puzzling.org
andrew.puzzling.org
live.linuxchix.org
planet.twistedmatrix.com
These are the sites I hope to move today:
bennetts.puzzling.org
buglinks.org
gardiner.id.au
imaginary.puzzling.org
mary.gardiner.id.au
poetry.puzzling.org
Everything else in the sidebar is still on Redwood Virtual.
Our latest puzzling.org host is linode.com. Early signs are good: it takes far less time to do most tasks than the Redwood Virtual machine.
