We added a couple of new extra-large nodes to the eqiad virt cluster at the end of last month. They've been performing fine, so this week I'm going to do a bit of re-balancing. I will be moving a few instances off of overloaded servers (virt1002, virt1005, virt1009) and on to the new, empty servers.

In most cases you won't notice these moves -- migration will cause a few-minute freeze on the instance but will not require a reboot. On occasion an instance doesn't survive the move intact and needs a reboot afterwards. If you have an instance running on one of the above hosts that cannot survive a 10-minute interruption, please let me know; otherwise, no action is required on your part. I don't plan on moving any tools nodes unless absolutely necessary.

Note, also, that the addition of these servers means that our space crunch is largely at an end. If you need a quota raised and we've been putting you off, now is the time to re-ask on IRC :)
