Title: NEW server for Matrasport and Club-Arnage !
Post by: Lennart Sorth on May 04, 2008, 07:39:26 pm
The new server is in place, and is running with a temporary IP address so I can syncronize its data from the running (old) server.

On Monday May 5th, at about 11am CEST (GMT+2) I intend to:

1.) On OLD server: stop Apache, mysql, and sendmail
2.) run my rsync script on new server  (should take approx 5 minutes)
3.) on new server: do the few changes that have been undone by the database sync
4.) disconnect old server from network
5.) change IP settings on new server, and reboot (not needed, but I'd like to)
6.) new server up with everything running.

run tests, and if happy with 8.), go buy cakes and enjoy life.   :-)

Service should be restored before lunchtime.

It turned out that the Dell rack mounts didn't fit in the normal cabinets, so they had to modify a brand new cabinet to our needs :)

Once that was done, the switch itself only took 5 minutes.

If you find things not working as before, please let me know

Hooray! :D

I'm sure everybody here will agree you have done an excellent job, Lennart.
To the people at Club-Arnage - thanks for funding this for our community! :)
