Global Update(MySQL, Issues, Etc.)

[cetutnx1]

If you carefully read the post, it says, and i don't want to be rude:

1)...please be patient, I am working as hard as I can on this.

2) Stoli and Cossacks are under extreme maintenance to clean up all inactive accounts and prepare them for the copy over. Once complete Apache and services will be brought back online until it is time to copy them.

3) Do not post support requests here, I will not answer them. Legitimate questions are okay to ask.

So please be patient thing will be solved...

Any news on Absolut? Still unable to access account and cpanel there.

I'm sure, like me, many would appreciate a brief update on progress on the first post of this thread if possible, please.
Thanks.

We await patiently.

Brief update

I'm just awaiting Slothie to look over the final server configuration before I move accounts back to Absolut. I need to make sure everything is setup correctly and 100% secured\optimized this time. Once he gives me the okay we'll start moving everything back. I'm hoping moving back will go faster!

This will provide a very LARGE performance increase, not a small one. I wouldn't have chosen to do this unless it would benefit everyone over time. I'm also going to see about enabling Ruby. It looks like it's working but I have no accounts on the server to test with!

Note:
I was told someone asked about paid accounts somewhere in this thread. If you buy paid hosting we can still grab your account from the backup server and move it to one of the paid servers, you would not have to wait for the transfers to be done.

Hi Corey,

Thanks for the update! We appreciate it!

 

[gfinlay]

Corey,
Thank you for the update. Do you see normal service coming back in hours, days, or weeks? For me it doesn't matter, I will wait, but I think it is good to set people's expectations to prevent frustration and dissapointment.
Many thanks
Gordon

My site which is Cossack is back up and I was able to edit is as needed.

THX TO ALL THE ADMINS AND THE DECISION MAKERS ON MAKING THIS HAPPEN

 

[Corey]

ETAs:
Absolut fully restored, Max(Hopefully) 48 hours.
We will start Stoli after we restore Absolut.

It's hard to give ETAs because we keep running into more issues and things that take time. This is also not a common thing so there is no time study or guide to go by.

Thanks Corey

When you say Absolut is restored - you mean it's fully back up, or you still need to load the backups into it?

I'm assuming this is why the Account panel isn't retrieving my information and I can't login to cPanel or ftp yet Apache serves my site up fine.

Keep up the good work (y) I don't think i've ever known another company to have such a complex server move to do.

 

[cowctcat]

Is there anyway I can help at all?

 

[Cycloneflame]

Someone asked me why I'll be getting rid of my account because I'm whining about one single downtime. The truth is that I used to use x10 a long time ago, and downtime and high server loads were common and often. I only came here until I could fix an agreement with another host, which I just have. I've already paid, and I'm now just waiting to get my stuff off the server, then I'll be terminating my account and moving-on.

 

[skelter]

Any idea about how long will it take for all the updates to be completed ? Some days ? A week ? More ?

 

[Momiji]

Thank you very much Corey for keeping us updated like this.

 

[gfinlay]

Corey,
Thank you, your estimates are much appreciated. I will drop back in a couple of days. Until then, all the best.

If there is anything I can do to help testing and the like, you have my email please feel free.

Good luck
Gordon

 

[sopletix]

Thanks a lot for the update, Corey. Keep up the good work!

 

[Ant59]

Thanks for doing Absolut first

Also, what does the 48 hours mean? Is that roughly when everything will be back to normal on Absolut?

Hi....just a small request/suggestion.

Could you put dates and/or times along with the progress reports? Just so we know (or for those that NEED to know). Thanx.

edit: I didn't realize there were 22 pages of this thread, and updates were being posted as well as listed in updates on the first post. This is why I shouldn't post before my morning coffee.
