HOST-C General Downtime 21-SEPT-2024

Hy Guys,

I do not intend to use this forum as a ticket system, but since we are light on KYC, I wish to inform all customers on the General Downtime we will do.

If admins/mods think this is not the place to post this, feel free to delete the tread. :)

Thanks to your continued support, we’ve outgrown our current rack and have successfully secured two adjacent units in the data center. Unfortunately, this expansion requires us to schedule a period of general downtime. While we’d prefer not to take this route, we have no other choice, as a live migration would take weeks and severely impact performance for everyone.

We’ve been granted access to the data center on 21-SEPT-2024 to move all servers, routers, and switches.

We expect the process to take 4 to 6 hours, during which all HOST-C services will be offline.

Once the devices are set up in the new racks, we will immediately start restoring services.

General downtime is scheduled to begin on 21-SEPT-2024 at 08:00 AM Bucharest Time.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.

    I like to see a provider who is pro-actively transparent and who seems to have satisfied customers grow.

    Best wishes!

    This is the best LET provider I have encountered here. Also did his homework.

    Don't need to apologize for being responsible and on top of things.

    Just don't forget to give us some killer post-migration deals.

    Thank you, in advance :smiley:

  • Good luck with your maintenance today.

    Re-infrastructure maintenances are some of the absolute scariest ones to do.

  • Monitor is UP: RO-STOR1. It was down for 5 hours and 54 minutes.

    Maintenance window checks out.

  • It's back guys

  • host_chost_c Member, Patron Provider

    Hy guys, service should start within a few minutes.

    Also, those that had services on Xeon Gold 6138 (2.0 GHz ) got a free upgrade to Xeon Gold 6148 ( 2.4 GHz )

    Xeon V4 2680 and 2660 got free upgrade to E5-2687W v4 ( 3.0 Ghz )

    We swapped out some Consumer NVME's we had and replaced it with Dell PM1725.

  • Alrighty, when can we get more tbs :p

    Mine is still on Xeon Gold 6130 (after reboot)
    That said, I'm still very satisfied
    It's already a nice upgrade

    I'll probably upgrade specs again in a few months if the quality remains the same
    Congrats for reaching this level

    Anything for 6130?

  • host-c is really one of the few good new providers I've met on let, and even though there will be a lot of people who don't trust you guys in the beginning, things are slowly getting better now!
