On going transfer and updates

[Corey]

We're still working on transferring accounts to another server. This is causing the downtime\slowness you all are seeing. We are having issues with what is supposed to be an automated process. Hopefully it will all be done soon.

With the transfer to the new server and all, you'll also be seeing the points rewards re-introduced soon along with being able to get info about your hosting much easier. We're also incorporating some other suggestions made by members. No ETA yet, but soon . Please remember x10 is staffed by all volunteers and none of us make money, not even me. All proceeds from paid hosting and ads go straight back into x10.

Thank you for letting us know what's up Corey.

I really appreciate you guys and what you do, your staff is excellent!

Word of mouth is your best friend

lol Automated processes.... Never trust them. As I like saying "If you can't do it yourself then it mustn't need doing".

Sure Manual may take longer, but atleast you know that you're doing it right.

Anyway, thanks for the update. All those stupid threads in free posting, can't people just read the news for once?

So, what are these extra features being incorperated? and what is the points system?

thanks for the update corey!
will this server transition save some money (monthly-wise)?

I just checked the server status in the cPanel and it shows that most of the stuff is working. Only httpd is left. So it looks like we are going to have things working pretty soon. (Atleast I hope so )

Just can't wait!!!

Transfer is only 22% done. It's going to be a while. All we can pretty much do is wait it out.

Wow...is MySQL down?

 

[Phil]

I don't think so.

 

[Arucard98]

I think it is...none of my DB's are working and it says:

MySQL Databases / 5

I know this is because of the transfer, as long as my db's come back it's all gravy ;-)

Oh i'm sure they will be back no worries, Just don't try and create new ones of deleted the old ones

Nah, if I've learned anything about computers and stuff, it's: If it's broken DON'T TOUCH IT ;-)

 

[pchelpworld]

So, this is the same transfer from yesterday? how far apart are the two servers?

 

[Bryon]

One server is at one of The Planet's datacenters, the other is at one of Layered Technologies.

 

[pchelpworld]

Oh, so they are quite far apart, what is the total size of the partition? well the size of all the sites on the older server?

Just a quick q, will we have to wait till 100% of the transfer is over or will some sites start working before 100% of the transfer is over?

 

[MicrotechXP]

Wow....can we get a new update on the transfer?

 

[Bryon]

It's at 25% now.. This is going to take, (I'm estimating.. ), a few more days to fully complete. :-(

In my time of being on X10, they can sometimes come across these downtimes but usually get them fixed in just about no time :] Corey and the admins are really good at this. So thanks guys for all your help!
