Server Maintenance

[Kye-U]

I got this email from my host:

Quote:Tonight between the times of 10pm Central Time Zone to 3am Central Time Zone we will be performing maintenance on your server that will result in downtime for a period of 90 to 120 minutes. We are upgrading the server from Apache 1 to 2 that will result in performance improvements.

[Kye-U]

Another one:

Quote:We will be upgrading all shared servers from MySQL 4 to MySQL 5 beginning Monday, February 9, 2009 and lasting until Friday, February 13, 2009. This upgrade will cause downtime for your databases, therefore; any database-driven sites will show an error during this time. The upgrade should take 15-45 minutes once the process is begun.

This upgrade is needed to bring MySQL to the current stable release, increase performance, and allow you to use a lot of new applications which require MySQL 5.

Random note: server hosting paid for and renewed, good for another 2 years Will renew when the time comes in 2011! (and the many years afterwards)
