Circo Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Earlier this year EmuMovies went from shared hosting to a dedicated server. Due to the unexpected growth and populatity of the site we have quickly outgrown our server. Currently we are running:Core2Duo 3.0Ghz250 GB hard drive2GB Ram5000 GB Bandwidthand while I thought we were 100mbs we are only 10Our new server:Core2Quad Intel 2.83Ghz6GB Ram2 x 750 GB (RAID 1-HW)9000GB Traffic/Month100 Mbs Network SpeedThis time unlike last time, they are going to move the site and FTP accounts for me so there should be no issues requiring new accounts to be set up like last time. As a team we are extremely excited about this and it should fix all of the minor FTP issues that we have had.Lastly I want to express a sincere thanks to all of our premium users for getting us to this point, in my opinion running out of resources is not a bad thing, it just shows that this project has true value and validity.- CircoView the full article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jochitko Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 That's great news! Just what we needed Looking forward to filling up the new space Thank you Circo for making the upgrade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circo Posted November 10, 2009 Author Share Posted November 10, 2009 They say that the transition will be complete tomorrow night, we will see. I am also in the process of getting the gallery and download section modules of this forum installed. I am thinking do to the increased space on the server I will be able to put a downloads section into the premium section of this board so those that would rather not have to use the ftp have that option as well. I am still going to include ftp access though for sharing and wip stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Circo Posted November 12, 2009 Author Share Posted November 12, 2009 Nothing goes as planned, had to kill the FTP temporarily to make the backups, it's going to take a week to fully get back to normal, but I wanted to make a few changes anyway. I guess you can't back up a site when the server is 98% full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
