My intent is to move the downsizer site to a new server late Friday, which means until the internet catches up with the change the forum will have to go offline on the "old" version so that people don't lost posts.

I now have an image in my head of jema sarrying huge boxes of pigs, plants, jam, knitting, fungi from one room to another.

Is that meant to be reassuring?

Probably postponing this for a week, we have a big Halloween bash tomorrow and besides that I'm not as far progressed with other things that need doing, so there is the potential of two loads hitting the fan if I do downsizer tonight

Remember to re-set your TTL.

Just an update on this, as it never happened (yet).

Downsizer is still running on a server in the USA, albeit one that has been depopulated to a pretty extreme point.

But the server has a commercial site on it that it would have been a little nasty to run any additional risk of disruption to before xmas, and compounding this some of the Plesk control system that I use migration routines have been proving less than slick and reliable

As such since the server has to be around till the new year, there was no need to move downsizer until then.

The processes are still continuing though, I have had one server shipped back to the UK and it is being installed in the new datacenter today

Tick tock, tick tock...

There are now only a few things left on the downsizer server, and just over two weeks until the next billing date.

As such Saturday is probably move day.
