Sorry for the unexpected downtime today. The nice folks at Lunarpages apparently migrated our server, but didn't say anything to us. I don't know what "migration" means, unless the original server had a hardware problem or something.

Total downtime was about 1.5 hours. Again, my apologies.

Hello

Hercules will be moved to a new server Monday, July 7, 2008. This move will be to transfer the server from our Los Angeles datacenter to our San Diego datacenter. We will start the migration process at approximately 6pm Pacific time. We suggest no significant changes be made to your site during the transfer. There will be an approximate 30 minute window after we do the last data synchronization between the servers where databases will not convert data to the new server. Unfortunately we do not have advance knowledge of the exact time of when this window will occur as it is dependent on numerous factors, however, we are estimating this will be at approximately 6pm Pacific time on Tuesday, July 8, 2008.

After the rsync completes, we will then be moving the server physically to San Diego. This may take a few hours to perform, then we will reboot it up at the new datacenter. The server will change IPs once it has migrated. The new server IP will be the following:

74.50.25.75 IN PTR hercules.lunarpages.com

You may check the current status for this server at any time in CAP via https://account.lunarpages.com/ with your cPanel username and password, then by clicking the Network Status icon.

Thank you for your patience and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any issues with your site, please contact support@lunarpages.com
