New Inkbunny server! Long downtime expected for changeover

by

Thanks to a whole pile of much-appreciated donations, we're able to afford a shiny new server!

As we're moving the whole site from one server to another, we're expecting downtime of several hours, possibly up to a whole day, starting approximately 24 hrs from the time this journal was posted.

Once the new server is online and the site has been moved over, it may take a further hour or two for it to become available to all users worldwide due to DNS propagation.

Be sure to follow Inkbunny on Twitter now so you can see exactly when we come back online, and keep up to date with any unexpected delays.

More server details and donation drive results will be announced after the migration is complete.

Thanks

I have always hated server migration. So muc that can go wrong and cause longer waits for completion. I hope all goes well.

See the shiny link above! We can give benchmarks etc. after the migration. I think our donors got their money's worth.

Thanks for the warning. I'm sure it'll be a lot better when you get the new server up and running. :)
