I recieved this email from the CEO of my hosting company earlier this evening:
What this means is that access times will be SPED UP!!
I bitched so much that they decided to roll out new servers for the database earlier than expected.
As a result, tomorrow (Sunday) the forums will be down for approximately 15 minutes while they move all the data from the existing database to the BRAND SPANKING NEW database.
This is a HUGE relief, because switching actual servers is a MASSIVE PAIN IN THE ASS, that could possibly take up to a few days. This has the same results, but very different and much easier means.
I hope you all are able to enjoy the forums to the fullest now!
Take Care,
Jim
FutureQuest is placing the new MySQL02 server on-line this weekend and would like to move some Databases off of the MySQL01 server. We have a limited number of sites that will be moved. Due to the issues you have brought up with your DB on the Community Forums we would like to offer
Bronx-Bombers.com the opportunity to be one of the DBs that is moved to the new "mysql02" server next week.
