    SOH is Moving Nov. 4th. UPDATED

    Our hosting company was purchased by Rackspace last year. They are closing the data center that houses our server and moving the servers to another location 15 miles way.

    The move date is November 4th, 2018. Time will be updated when we know.

    There will be significant downtime on both servers at the same time.

    Posted by Dangerous Dave today. Once October 14th arrives, this explains why SOH will be unreachable.

    Dave, just a quick clarification? Are we talking out of commission for hours, days, or perish the thought weeks? This site is almost like crack. Gotta have my daily fix. . Thanks for the HU...Terry

    The data center plans on starting at 0:00 Central Time US and completing before or around 8am that day. Basically they have given themselves an 8 hour window.

    Sounds like a plan.. I'll check in after 4 pm. That'll give a 16 hr. window.. as we all know..... Stuff Happens..even to the best of men. Hope they address the fact that between 2215hrs and 2230hrs PST most every evening, the " site is busy, please try again later." Been this way for over six months. Hope they find the gremlin... Thank you for the clarification. Good Luck with the changeover. Terry

    Terry, they have to run the backups at some time! Man, you have it bad...

    Tom, thank you for the heads up. I never gave that a thought. I'm usually heavy simming from 9 pm to midnight. I assumed, if the server is on East Coast, they'd do maintenance after 3 am EST. My bad.. Now I'll try to remember that particular 15 minute window is going to be unavailable. I appreciate the clarification...Terry
