Charlie Server Migration

[GlowSteve]

Our Company has great news for those of our customers whose accounts are hosted on the shared server Charlie. We've decided to replace it with a brand-new and much more powerful machine. This upgrade requires migration of cPanel accounts to the new server. The transfer procedure will be initiated tomorrow, within the time frame specified below.

We will keep you notified on the progress. Should you have any questions or comments, feel free to post them in this thread.

Please read these details carefully:

Server Name: Charlie
Service Date: Thursday, 24 October, 2013
Service Window: 2 AM to 9 AM
Details: Charlie Server Migration
Expected Downtime: No downtime expected

This means work will begin at some point during this time specified in the service window above, unless unexpected situations arise. During this service window, your site may go temporarily offline. If we are unable to start the maintenance before the service window closes, it will be re-scheduled for the next day at the same time.

As always, we recommend that you have local copies of your web site in the event of unforeseen issues which may result in complete and total data loss on the server. While we do not anticipate this to be an issue, it is always a wise choice to have copies of your web site in multiple locations.

You can make copies of your web site using the backup option in your cPanel.
