Yes, I know we have had a lot of downtime lately, but for once, this one is a good thing.

During teh next day and a half or so, Soccerpulse.com will be down, So we can port the database over to the new server. We hope that no posts will be lost, but there is a chance a small number may be. This move will be the final step in moving to th enew server, and when completed, SP will be at its new home. a faster, better, more reliable server.


depending on when it happens, teh downtime could be 10 minutes, or a few hours. It all depends on when the DNS entry is updated. We hope to right on top of things when it does happen, s the dontime is minimal.


I hope you enjoy it.

Cheers
Chris

This is true, I cannot help but feel people will think this, But this is a positive move. The reason for this move is teh other bouts with downtime we have had. The server is a wreck, and moving to a new one will rectify all thse issues.

This new server, is bigger better and faster. I dont see how ten minutes of downtime will be a problem for the amount we get in return.

let me reitterate.


THERE WILL BE ONLY A FEW MINUTES OF DOWNTIME..

IT WILL OCCUR IN THE NEXT DAY OR SO...

THERE WILL NOT BE A LOSS OF DATA.. (meaning no posts will be lost)

Thanks for the warning. Hopefull everyone on SP will benefit from the move.

great work chris. We all appreciate all the stuff that you do for this fantastic site

yep great work mate
