(COMPLETE) DVXuser Maintenance Tonight

[Jason Ramsey]

Hello, all. Just a heads up that DVXuser will have periods of downtime tonight, beginning around 12am EDT. I am not sure how long the downtime will last, but we are anticipating a couple of hours if there aren't any surprises.

I appreciate your patience, and apologize for any inconvenience.

Take care.

[Jason Ramsey]

Thank you for your patience. All work is complete for now. Total downtime was about 2 hours and 10 minutes.

If you receive any errors, please let me know.

We're all glad it went smoothly Jason, so we can continue to get our fix of DVXuser.

Were there any substantial updates or was it a "nothing burger"?

PS. I took this time to update my cliche cache.

Yes, it was a complete server migration to a new box in a new data center, as well as some upgrades to php and mysql, and other back-end software. You shouldn't notice anything different on the front end (yet), other than (hopefully) snappier response times, and much quicker database calls on searches and the like.

It feels a lot faster. An older version often took several seconds to load.
