Little bit of additional info/corrections. We were just in the process of migrating the stuff over - all that was missing was creating a current database dump to not loose the last-minute edits that were done before the annoucement. To avoid any additional edits on the new server, and edits on the old one, both were put into maintenance mode - so no edits get fogotten, and no edits will be overridden. But then the announcement did kick in and really brought the old server down to its knees, even when the webserver was shut down (and dns already pointed to the new server) load would not go down. I assume some kind of kernel bug or other misbehaviour, as neither the wiki nor the mail website didn't do anything. Despite that we had a load of over 30 and we didn't want to kill mysql to avoid breaking table integrity... So we decided to sit it out and wait... That unfotunately did took rather long... But all's well that ends well :-) The new server performs really nice after some initial tuning http://www.webpagetest.org/result/130207_RA_HQF/ The result is only spoiled by piwik (that is still running on the old server) - otherwise complete page load would be less than 1s. ciao Christian -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
