Please note that, as part of our regular hardware replacement cycle, we will shortly be moving users from our Yoda server onto a new server. The new server features quad core Xeon processors and 16GB RAM, as well as the latest CentOS 6.x operating system, so you should notice a significant performance boost.
In order to ensure the process happens smoothly, we will be moving accounts over on an individual basis. All content will be copied, including web sites, databases, e-mails, statistics and so on. Note that your site will be given a new IP address in the process. Existing DNS servers will be updated automatically, so you should notice little or no downtime. We will also carry out all transfers at off-peak times, to ensure as little disruption as possible. If you host your own DNS servers and don't use the Zernebok DNS servers, please submit a support ticket and we will advise you of the new IP addresses.
If you have made use of our server hostname "yoda.zernebok.com" directly (e.g., in a mail client), you will need to change this to mail.yourdomain.com to avoid any disruption. The new server will have a temporary hostname until the old Yoda server is retired completely.
At present, there will be no changes to any of our other shared hosting servers. If you have a VPS or dedicated server with us, this will also not be affected.
If you notice any problems or encounter any difficulty, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
