[Completed] Venus server migration to CCLA colo - Dotable

Aussie Bob · 24th May 2007, 11:39 AM

We are relocating the Venus server from our colo in One Wilshire Building, over to our main colo in the Carrier Central LA (CCLA) facility. Most of the Dotable servers are located in our cabinet in the CCLA facility, and we need to migrate the Venus server into this cabinet.

Identical hardware to Venus server is being racked in our CCLA cabinet now, and we will begin migrations to this server within 10 days of this announcement. It would be great if we could just unplug Venus and have it walked next door to the CCLA colo, but IPs are not transferable between the two colos, so we have to migrate accounts over to the new Venus and reIP the new server with new IPs.

Each Dotable client on the Venus server will be contacted, and a ticket opened, for this migration. If you have custom nameservers, then we will assign you new nameserver IPs, for you to change at your register.

If you're not contacted in the next 10 days, this means the email contact information we have for your account is out of date, so please open a ticket on the Dotable helpdesk and request your account be migrated to the new Venus.

Many thanks.

OK, what are the new Venus specs?

Aussie Bob · 25th May 2007, 12:14 AM

The exact same specs as current Venus.

OK, I only wanted you to confirm the meaning of "The identical hardware". Good luck.

Check your welcome email for your Dotable server.

I'm definitely not in a hurry but I believe it's been 10 days and I haven't received any notification of IP# change. I noticed the listening IP is still the same according to the Venus status page. Anything new I should know?

Just a slight delay. The emails will be going out in the next week.

Aussie Bob · 3rd July 2007, 11:57 AM

We're starting these migrations in the next 24 hours. Emails will be going out shortly . . .
