[admin]

Oh yea we have a roll-back if needed..

Yea I have heard a LOT of issues with jodohost.. We try to plan any outages we have here so you know about them. We don't have many of them and this I one I hope with be the last big network upgrade for a LONG time..

Don't know how accurate it is

Hey your thing says it's 3:49 AM here in PST zone when it is actually 9:11 PM. What's up with that?!!

( if we could only stop rotating the earth ) Personally, I think it should go down at 12:15 am US Central Daylight savings time.

With our wonderful world wide web, time has certainly taken on a new dimension.

Your Slovenian friend would also prefer weekends, but I know you are doing you best to satisfy everone. Thanx for advance notice (none of the clients complained about it, yet.

BTW: What will you total bandwidth be after the upgrade?

Sorry if I'm lost, but has the upgrade been completed?

The schedule it said is 12:15 AM Central Time on 05/05/2004, which should be around 12:15 PM, 05/05/2004 our time (Asia). It's around 4 PM already here, 05/05/2004, which means the upgrade must have done already.

I just dont want to miss the info, but I didnt notice downtime as expected.

Sorry if I wasnt able to follow.

AFAIK no-ones actually posted to say it's been completed, I guess no-news is good news, but I'd have hoped someone would have at least stopped by and let us know how it went (if it went).

Sorry all just a bit tired, We are up as you all can see but we are using our providers router for the time being, we still have a few configuration changes to make with the black diamond before we can switch to that. The good news is we will bring the new cogent line up on that so I really don't think we will have any downtime but don't quote me on that. More to come later in the day when Brad is around and gets a full report from James.

Thanks Dave, appreciate you posting an update on the install

[bigdave]

No problem I should have done it sooner!

[garmol]

Thanks a lot for the clarification Dave.

What's the problem?

http://status.vortechhosting.com:8080/ is currently unavailable and many of my domains are also unavailable.

[Vixen]

The hard drive died for the server that houses http://status.vortechhosting.com:8080/ Brad is not sure he will be putting IPmon back on the system as he was going to get rid of it anyway.

If you are having issues with your domains, I would recommend submitting a TT.

We still need to update our site for these changes.. I did not plan for status to take a crap like it did last night..

[Silverbug]

Brad is there a link that shows all of the machines?

[admin]

Not right now thats something we have asked them to get in to the package along with XML.. I will check with matt tomorrow to see if paessler got back to him yet about that.

The response was "We are working on a new release of PRTG then we will work on IPCheck", so it may be coming, but not immediately.
