Comments on the following newsitem
Friday July the 3th I will replace the database server with the new server. This will not cause any downtime.

However, two of the harddrives from the webserver need to be replaced because they indicate that they will fail soon. For this I have to shut down the webserver. I don't know exactly for how long, it all depends on how quickly the RAID controller can rebuild the array.

Maintenance will start around 9:00GMT.

So far so good.

Everything went smooth, no real problems. The new database server is placed and the hard drives in the web server have been replaced.

At the moment I'm learning the two servers how to work as a team. If all goes well I'll be done well before the daily update.
Please do not PM, IM or email me for support (they will go unread/ignored). Use the forum for support.

I´m very much in awe of you for managing that without anyone the wiser
At least I didn´t experience any outages yet.

Well done
