Coming upgrade and move

[Baron von Schtinkenbutt]

A couple months ago I purchased the initial parts to build a dual-ITX rackmount system.  I'm (finally) about to purchase the last pieces I need to make the system operational.

My plan is to shift the web server over to a new system, an Atom D525-based system with an enterprise-class Western Digital RE4 drive.  In the same case will the the current server board, reconfigured as a backup server with a pair of WD Green 2TB drives.  Once up and running, I plan to co-locate this box at a local datacenter.

The result is that, over the next couple months, there will be intermittent outages while certain steps happen.  At worst, none should last more than a day.  Once complete, however, operation should be much smoother than before.

In case I get to a point where a down period looks to last a significant amount of time, I'm going to look into cloud services options that could run a server image for a few days.

Me too.  I'll pay more to go back to InVision, too.  With all the bells and whistles.

Will there be any data loss involved?

Is that what we had before SMF?

The rating and reputation systems should be fun.
