This thread is for scheduled down times.
Wed Nov 10, 2010 @ 930am Pacific Time: Our server host is expanding their facility and moving our server to a new location. They are scheduling a 1 hour downtime for that move. I am, however, going to say 2-3 hours so I can make sure we're down in plenty of time and everything is saved. Then, after the system is moved, I can get the ip forwarding updated and everything back up and running. It seems we've had some lagginess lately and hopefully their expansion will go smoothly and improve the connection qualities. As with any major computer/technical change, there is the chance there may be issues along the way, here's to open ther is not. I've been asked if this means everyone has to start over... No, it's simply a hardware move, not a wipe. I will be doing a complete backup earlier in the morning so that if something should go wrong, we have something to go back on. Thanks for your patience and see you on the return.

UPDATE for Wed Nov 10th downtime:
Due to unforeseen things, I have to go to town this morning, therefore I have shut the shard down early, about 815am Pacific so I can finish making sure all files are current in the backup.
The scheduled transfer to a new facility is at 1000am and they say about an hour so once that is done and I have made sure all is working as it should be with forwarding etc, I'll have DC back up.
I'm gonna give up time at noon pacific for now, but hopefully it'll be sooner.
