Title: Moving to a new web server
Post by: Sami on February 16, 2010, 11:38:54 AM

AirwaySim will be moved to a new web server in about 10 days. We have currently three different server computers in operation and the oldest of the three will be replaced by a brand new server. At the same time we shall reorganize some of the services to different computers and this means also that AirwaySim will move to a new server.

The move will take place in two steps. First step is the relocation of AirwaySim to a temporary (third) server as we need to reconfigure some of our other services at the same time this move/installation takes place. This relocation will happen today (tuesday 16th) and will cause a small 30min - 1 hour service break. The second step is to move from the temporary server to the new machine that will be installed next week; this again should cause no more than about 1 hour downtime.

When the services are being moved all game worlds are stopped temporarily and the site is closed for that time.

Step #1 has been completed.

Please let me know if there's something that is clearly not working anymore, and so on.

The new server will be installed on some time next week, some final adjustments needed so thus a small delay on this. However seems that this "temp" server is also working just fine so we're not in a rush. ;)

A bit slower since you made this change. And I've been experiencing a few page loading failures, sometimes. But nothing too serious.
