Server Moving Thursday 28 January 2016

Post by caughtatwork » 27 January 16 4:53 pm

Hi Folks.

At the request of colocation host, the Geocaching Australia server needs to be physically relocated to take account of improved power arrangements and other such mundane stuff like airconditioning. .

They will be moving the server tomorrow night, Thursday 28th January 2016 from around 10:00pm.
We will start the process of updating IP addresses and shutting down the machine from around 9:30pm tomorrow Thursday 28th January 2016.
We expect the server will be functional by around 10:30pm all things being equal.

We will be monitoring progress and will try and keep you informed (Facebook) of any issues should they arise.

Thanks.
c@w and CR.
