Changes \ Information

At first I thought there was something wrong with my site. So I'm glad to find out it's not just me affected.
Anyways, good luck with the updates, hope it'll move along smoothly..

Is there a ETA(ccomplishment) on this?

Nothing against you guys, but I rather like having my site up pretty consistently. Actually, it's sort of important for what I'm doing. So I'd rather switch to a host that has a 99.9% uptime (or something crazy like that) but far less features than you guys offer.

I agree with others in this thread. You can do whatever you want because you're offering this to us for free, and we can't really claim anything from you, but if I had to make a recommendation, I would recommend using the production and testing server scheme.

Another idea that would be interesting -- having a set number of servers with just the barebones (HTTP, FTP, cPanel and that's it) that go down extremely infrequently (far less than your more feature-rich servers). I'd use those when the main servers are down!!! It seems like most of your downtime is related to mySQL, which a lot of us don't necessarily use. Just a thought!

For example, I'd sign a form that say "I will only use HTTP, FTP, and cPanel", and when the main servers go down, my website could magically redirect to a backup server of some sort with just those features.

Anyway, all that being said, good luck upgrading and godspeed.

Are you talking about operating a grid server system? That would work but it is I believe expensive and highly complex to achieve.

If that's what it is referred to as, then yea.

i don't think it's the MySQL that's screwing things up, I think they're just using that to help debug. I thought the problem lies in the advanced CPanel. No matter the cause, these issues weren't prevalent before the server move. So, once they are fixed there won't be a need to have options.

but ya i have to agree its something in the cpanel software and apache itself

Respectfully I want to hear advance news about this "change" and timeline about finishing project.
Also, this "changes" will fix server issues at least or we could wait for another week server down next month like last months?
