Hello,
Xena will be moved to a new server Thursday, November 20, 2008. This move will be to transfer the server from our Los Angeles datacenter to our San Diego datacenter. We will be physically moving the machine to San Diego. During this move, the server will be offline for approximately 3-4 hours to transport the box to the new location, then we will reboot it up at the new datacenter. During this final migration reboot, web-based services could be down for 20-60 minutes due to the Apache and PHP upgrades that must be performed. The server will change IPs once it has migrated. The new server IP will be the following:
67.210.123.140 IN PTR xena.lunarpages.com
Please note that we will be upgrading several important components on your server as well. The version for each component is listed below:
Apache to 1.3.41 if it wasn't already this version
PHP4 to PHP 4.4.9
PHP5 when applicable to PHP 5.2.6
MySQL to MySQL 5.0.51a
Ruby when applicable to Ruby 1.8.6 newest patched release
Zend Optimizer to 3.3.3
ImageMagick to 6.4.3
IonCube to 3.1.32
ffmpeg when applicable to latest release snapshot
These updates are for security purposes to update each service to the newest, secure release. If you experience any site issues due to the upgrades, please note that you may need to review your php.ini file(s) to see if the following line needs to be added to it:
register_globals = On
Additionally, your .htaccess or php.ini may need to have php-based handlers changed. Additionally, if you use php5, you may need to uncomment any php5 lines in your .htaccess file that might become commented out during the upgrade. You should contact us at
migrations@lunarpages.com with any questions you might have about such changes.
Not all servers have the above PHP5, Ruby or ffmpeg services. If you require access to a server with one of these components, please let us know.
You may check the current status for this server at any time in CAP via
https://account.lunarpages.com/ with your cPanel username and password, then by clicking the Network Status icon.
Thank you for your patience and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any issues with your site, please contact
