Full Version: Maintenance downtime today. We're getting rid of one server
AsianFanatics Forum > Bulletin Board > Announcements

There will be a little maintenance downtime today around GMT 16:00.

Due to financial problems, we have to cancel one of our four servers. (donations were low lately, and due to the crisis, advertisement income dropped with more than 50% and my personal finance isn't going too well too.)

The one to go is our fileserver.

Today I'll redistribute the load to our other servers. Because the other three are new and very powerful, hopefully this redistribution wouldn't have a too negative impact.

When the economy is getting better, I might be renting another (cheaper) server later.

The fileserver tasks are now distributed among the remaining servers.

I've updated the search engine too, to update more frequently.

It's the server which is optimized to host all of our static files like images. This makes the rest of the site faster.

To understand more of our configuration: see http://asianfanatics.net/forum/index.php?s...st&p=344063

I do realise the significant slow of the loading of the AF site after the removal of server...
Should this actually happen?
