Title: Monastery Downtime
Post by: ivor on July 17, 2008, 03:43:23 PM
Hi Everybody,

In the next few days I am going to move the Monastery from DreamHost to our own private server.  I'm not exactly sure when I will do it.  If you see a message about a "bad httpd conf" you'll know it happened.  If you see that message, give the Monastery a couple hours and try again.

Moving the Monastery now will facilitate and easier conversion to the upcoming platform(Joomla 1.5 upgrade and phpBB3) conversion.

Any questions?

Thanks,
MB

What arrangements have you made for:

1) off-site backups

2) off-site support when you are unavailable


~ sorry, but you did ask for questions..... always like to oblige ;D

I have another separate machine for backing up the database.  The same one I was using for DreamHost backups.

I can give someone else the keys to the server if they so desire.

So far things have been going great.  The server is very, very fast.  I'm getting at least 10mb per hour of attacks and no one has gotten through yet.  :mrgreen:
