Server Move Information

Server Move Annoucment:

"We will be moving to a new server on Friday afternoon, March 19, 2004. The move will be starting around 2:00PM EST, and last several hours. During this time, pdaPhoneHome will be offline for extended periods to assure that the databae integrity is maintained. In the event of any problems with the move, the outages could extend into Saturday. We are sorry for the inconvenience, but hope that we will be able to provide better service and performance as a result of the change. Following the move, there will be some exciting new features being rolled out at pdaPhoneHome! Please check the Site Problems and Suggestions forum for any further status. "

We have experienced a great number of problems with our current data center, even though I think the overall availability hasn't been that bad. The combination of FreeBSD, Cpanel, and the current data center team has not been a good combination. We are moving to a new data center with more personalized admin support that is very familiar with Cpanel. In addition we are moving away from FreeBSD and will be running Redhat Enterprise 3.0. This is a lot of work to do, and I hate to go through it, but we've got to do it. I could fill a full season on a second rate sitcom with the goings on that have happened behind the scenes with this server.

The good news is that a lot of the things that have been stuck in a logjam that we've talked about doing.. download engine, new site design, site store, etc. are finishing up and will be rolling out soon... along with some promotions. We are also looking at moving to vBulletin 3 with a totally new design in the near term.

Thanks for your patience with this move.

The move took a lot longer than we anticipated. I apologize for that, but we are up now. If anyone is experiencing a problem now, please report it here...

Anyone having a problem with the size of the reply box? Seems to be small for me.

As a side note... the new server is a 2.8Ghz dual Xenon... up from a 2.4Ghz... and back on Redhat Linux Enterprise 3.0... from FreeBSD.
