It's that time again....

Recommended Posts

Heya all,

My struggles with servers and ISP's seem to be never ending.... :)
So yes, you guessed it... we're moving again!

I don't have the time to embark on the same kind of operation that I went on last time so I asked for some help from them crazy Canadians again! :S I will in fact be moving the site to their servers.

They assure me there will be no more than 30 minutes "downtime" - unlike my effort last time when I kept you guys productive at work for days!

This will probably happen somewhere in next week - I'll let you know when I have more details. For those techies who know about computer-stuff and who may be curious, here's what we had and what we're going to:

Current Server:
Processor : 650 Mhz
Memory : 512MB RAM
Hard Drive 1 : 20GB EIDE
Bandwidth : 40GB/Month

New Server:
Processor : Dual AMD 1.2 Ghz processors
Memory : 1 GIG RAM
Hard Drive 1 : 40GB EIDE
Bandwidth : 60GB/Month

So, we're doubling the uuumpff! Keep the faith. I think we'll get it right. :)

Just make sure they don't do it during daylight hours... Otherwise, I will not have anything to do at work.:D

I hope everything goes smoothly. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help. I would be sad if there was no DZ.Com. This web site is a treasure chest of skydiving information and just a kick ass way to meet fellow jumpers around the world..........

Thanks Dude!!B|

Thanks HH, this site is the source of most of my my corruption and depravity, not to mention nudity, gross indecency and insanity.
WHat would I do without you (and it)?!!!!
.....Probably become a mundane drone that actually contributed productively at work....Do I want that? NO!!!!;):D

Quick update:

Got the whole site copied onto the new server. I spent most of my weekend testing and it's looking good. :)
Outstanding issue is a commercial agreement with the two hosts to prevent me from having to pay double hosting fees this month.

As soon as this is set we'll sync up the data and point the domain name at the new IP address. Should be in the next couple of days... or sooner. (Want to get rid of these server overloads ASAP!)

I'll keep ya'all posted. B|
