We had an issue with the previous migration, so I had postponed it but I'm up now against it and I've got to do it this weekend. So we'll be down for a bit tonight (Saturday) into Sunday while all the data is moved, beginning at 7pm ET likely into Sunday morning since the database is massive, as is the filesystem. I mentioned this previously, the good news is we'll have two new boxes with upgraded processors and upgraded drives on the second server (we upgraded the drives on the other one last year) that will hopefully lead to even better performance and more storage for some of the things I'm working on that are coming up.
It's a pain, but I need to get it done. I wanted to get it over with Friday night, but I have to work Saturday and wanted to be home during the entire process and figured Saturday night might fit everyone's schedule a bit better.
As a result, you'll have to spend a little more time with your loved ones tonight. So make some plans, watch some Netflix or a DVD, etc. Hopefully, this will go relatively smoothly and we'll be back up Sunday morning. But otherwise, I appreciate your patience while I get this done.
