Server move in next couple days [completed]

Post by Red Squirrel »

In the next week or so, the site and all services including UO Gateway will be getting moved.

There will be a little bit of a period where things will appear down while DNS propagates as to prevent data discrepancy I will shutdown services on the old server once they are started up on the new one.

Given the lack of traffic on this forum I won't really put that much effort into making it 100% seamless like I usually do, so downtime for a few hours will be normal. For UO Gateway users you will notice the poller IP will change at some point. New IP is going to be 51.79.6.91.

I will update this post on the old server when the move is starting then update it again on the new server when the move is final.

Mail server has been successfully moved.

Going to start prepping to move web server now. To avoid inconsistencies in SQL data once the SQL has been migrated over to new server the old one will be shutdown and there will be downtime until DNS finishes propagating.

If you are reading this you are now on the new server.

Still have a few things to do in background, reboots are possible but in general things should work now.

UO Gateway poller is also running on new server now.
