Forum closed Thursday 14th March 8:30PM (ADST) (6 hours)

[AB]

Hi All,

The forum will be closed tomorrow night (Thursday 14th March) from 8:30PM (ADST) for the migration over to the new server.

This should take approximately 6 hours so hopefully by around 2-3am we should be in our new home.

Fingers crossed it all goes smooth and not loose any data!!!!

Huge thank you to Jas for assisting me with this too, he has been a huge help with the migration and spoke to the company to ensure they know what they are doing. He seems happy with their plan so fingers crossed!

Going to be a sleepless night for this little puppy....LMAO

[rusty_nail]

thanks for the heads up mate! i hope it all goes well and well see each other on the other side fingers crossed!

Hey guys - just on this migration - if anyone is normally awake around 2am Sydney time can you let me know. As part of the process there are some DNS changes which would be handy to be able to be tested from various providers. Highly unlikely to be needed but if anyone is happy to help can you PM me and let me know your provider? All it will entail is we'll let you know the forum is live again and you going to the forum and making sure you can reach it.

Hey guys - we have just made some changes in preparation for tomorrow's migration. I have tested and not seen any issues however if anyone has issues accessing the site (ie can't get to the site at all for any period of time) can you PM me when you can get back online. Please note that the changes would not affect any of the functionality or features of the forum - if it was going to have any effect you wouldn't be able to access the site for a period of time.

Jas

[AB]

Looks good here Jas!

Jas, if I can be of service tomorrow night for a quick test, let me know. I'm usually up to around midnight ..... that is, if I don't crash out on the sofa ;)

[lorrieandjas]

Hey Clunk - that would be good - can you PM me your email address - if the worst happens and the forum is down I can get you to do some stuff via email or mobile. It'll be about 1am my time when the migration finishes. I am not anticipating any issues - the migration plan is pretty rock solid (famous last words as this is what I run a company for my living) but you never know. Murphy has a bad habit of crashing my party!
