Hey LET,
I am looking for someone who can unrack, pack some servers, move them to another DC closeby and rack/cable them again. Activity would ideally be scheduled during off-peak hours.
If anyone is interested, drop me a PM.
Thank you!

Moved this to the "Requests" category ✌️
This is a risky activity. How would you be sure that this person won't clone the storage drives in these servers mid move?
Maybe safer to ask the new DC to do this and send someone from their end to pick it up?
These are empty servers. The activity is during offpeak hours to prevent anything from happening to live servers while racking/unracking.
New DC does not offer this, hence the post 🙂
Wait a minute. When did the "The Domain Guy" become MOD?
What kind of DC is it?
Which data centers are they moving from / to?

I responded to @leapswitch on 1 June with a personal message here on LET. I asked for more details about what help they needed. They never responded. All I got was crickets. How rude!
The most recent time they were active here on LET was a few hours ago, so they must have seen and ignored my message. Now I wonder why I responded at all.
If leapswitch could not be bothered to respond to someone who offered to help but needed more info, then I would not trust them for anything else, including whatever VPS or dedicated server services they offer.
Apologies, this was not our intention and your message was genuinely missed. Our new datacenter handled it for us so we didn't actively reach out in this thread or via messages.
Apology accepted. Mistakes happen, so I take back what I said.
that escalated and de-escalated quickly.
Shouldn't it be called Smart Hands?
