Scheduled Stardock Downtime - Monday March 21st 2005

from JoeUser Forums

Sometime after 11am EST (GMT-5) on Monday, March 21st, almost all the Stardock websites are going to go dark for a couple of hours as we migrate servers from a half-rack to a full-rack in our colo facility.

It will be done as quickly as humanly possible, but things will probably be wonky into the afternoon. Stardock.com, WinCustomize.com, JoeUser.com, GalCiv2.com, the store, irc server, Stardock Central downloads, most everything will be impacted by this. I may migrate the IRC server to another site so that it at least stays up, but we'll see how much time I have tomorrow.

Thank you for your patience.

What am I supposed to do when I'm sitting here at work with nothing to do? JU was my only source of distraction/entertainment!

Hopefully this will help clear up the problems we've been seeing the past few weeks.

I think it's great you told us and all, but if my counting is right that was a two hour warning, posted on the same site that was going to go down. Anyways, hope things all go well with the migration, and thanks for th heads up.

'Wonky' is in the OED. It's not cromulent.

And, for the record, I did post about the downtime on the WC forums last week, but didn't remember to do so here.
