Provided there is a good consensus that the week is a better time than
the weekend (I am guessing here that volunteer coders and users are more
active during the weekend) then I would suggest starting the operation
on Tuesday, January 13 at 18:00 UTC. The period of downtime is expected
to last until January 14, 18:00 UTC but may extend a few hours beyond that.
After collecting feedback, I am changing those dates to:
Start: Thursday, January 15 at 18:00 UTC
End: Friday, January 16 at 18:00 UTC
There is some good news however, after some testing it would seem that
my original estimates for the time to move the filesystem around may
have been overly conservative and the copy may take less than 12 hours
all told. That said, I'm keeping the window to the full planned 24h to
make allowances for unplanned delays and the possibility that
performance is lower than expected on the live system.
Thank you all.
