Server Upgrades + Hurricane Alert
Posted: Wed Oct 24, 2012 7:54 am
During the past week and a half or so, i have dedicated a lot of time to working with Linux. This was to prepare for the switch to Linux on the C/B & Minecraft server. When the move is completed, it will have 5GB ram and should run everything a lot smoother just as it did for Deathrun.
I've tested out everything that would be running on Linux to make sure it will all work. This includes SRCDS (cheat/build) with all plugins (SM, Eventscripts, SourceOP, autobuild script converters, etc), Minecraft, TeamSpeak3, and our mail server. Everything ran fine on my test server, so I think we are ready to proceed with these changes on the real server.
Most likely this change will happen on Friday (Oct. 26) in the afternoon/night. Expect those servers to be offline for a bit as set everything back up.
After everything is complete, that will mean all Area 51 Servers will be running on Linux!
Nick's Announcements:
=================================================================
Please know that there is an incoming hurricane "Sandy" that will pretty much hit right on us. So, if anything shall happen, the server may be off due to a power outage in the local area. To an extent that the power shall be off for more than 2 hours, we will using our generator again to power the servers. The hurricane looks like it will be in our area beginning of next week.
