Tonight's the night, Part Deux

Ok, so in about an hour or so, we’ll be doing nelson, shortly followed thereafter by pendrell, then when we finish those two, we’ll do the same with davie and gilford.

We’ve been disabling services this time, as we actually want to get everything and not miss any comments/posts/emails/anything, so typically we’re seeing perhaps an hour and a half dark time while /home and /mysql transfer over to San Diego.

We hope y’all are ready, because we are, and learned a few tricks last night. :-)

Individual server threads will be opened as the servers go dark, and updated as things finish up.

Update
Ok, we’re about 10 minutes out on nelson going dark for a bit, then 20 minutes after that for pendrell.

  1. Pendrell looks pretty. I rolled my DNS. Might want to tell others.
