The-Spot.net Will Be Down On Sunday

by Neo » 29 Apr 2004, 22:29

I got this email from the people that own the server.
Email wrote:We have a shortage of web space on solaris web server so we would need to add in a bigger hard drive. For this we will need to take the server offline for few minutes for hard disk installation on sunday. We will post more information about this on sunday in your help desk system under the announcements section. So please keep visiting your help desk for latest network or web server related updates.
Like it says, it should only be down for a few minutes, but they didn't give a specific timeframe yet. Just letting y'all know about that in advance.

People do that to me all the time
* Neo glares at Jad * :razz:
But unless it's a problem that y'all can see on a page, then I have no idea what's up, or how long it will take. I deal with the pages, and have little warning about what's going on with the server. So don't ask unless y'all see something wrong on the page. ;)

They're not doing it for us...they're doing it for all the sites stored on their servers. We are growing though, but it's not the reason (nor are we growing by so much) that they have to install a new server.

so did anyone have any problems getting to the site? I was gone most of the day and night, and didn't get on to see if it ever went down.
