Title: Maintenance Notification
Post by: Joe W on October 08, 2019, 08:31:32 PM

Lunarpages has been bought out by HostLabs.  The PSR Tutorial server, which was hosted at Lunarpages, is now hosted by HostLabs.  There has been no major disruption in our service and visible change in the forum or the main site.  However, I have just received an email from HostLabs indicating that there will be a "Maintenance Window" today (Oct 9) starting at 10 pm PST. 

From HostLabs:

"We will be upgrading one of the UPS systems in the data center where your account is hosted.  This will result in power not being available to your server for up to four hours. At 10:00pm Pacific we will begin a graceful shut down of your equipment.  After the installation of the UPS system is complete we will bring all equipment back online."

What all this means is that the PSR Tutorial forum and site will be unavailable from late Wednesday night until some time on Thursday morning.

If a purge should occur, Toril, which I don't believe it will, Joe and I both backup the forum on a daily basis, so the forum could be restored very easily, using the most current backup.  :)

“site will be unavailable from late Wednesday night until some time on Thursday morning.”

Is that for Pacific Time Zone?

By examining the time stamp on forum messages, it looks like we were down for only about 2 hours.  Not bad.  All seems to be up and working fine again.
