Done. (Well avatars and a few days of uploaded images are uploading now.)
Hope we never have to move this beast again. It's a monster. We've pretty much at least quadrupled performance with this machine and it's still very much upscaleable so we shouldn't have to.
Special shout out for Rui! Couldn't have done it without him. He stayed up all night to get this done.
People will be coming in throughout the day as DNS populates. You geeks know what I'm talking about.

I probably should've read this BEFORE maintenance occurred. Ah well, too late now.
Glad to hear the CCF is its own site now however.

Uploaded images and avatars *should* all be restored now. Please let me know here if you see any others broken or if you see any rogue error messages.

We will be moving from a virtual server to an actual server that is just ours. So did we move from virtual to physical ("actual")? |

The only con is hosting went up $120 a month, over $300 now. Pros are pretty much everything else. Faster, easier to control, more reliable, etc, etc.

So SNITZ charges you $300 per month? So you are no longer using their server? If so, might they charge you less per month? John1 Edited by John1

Snitz doesn't run servers. It was never on a Snitz server. It was on a virtual (basically shared) server at Kiwihosting. Now we are on our own at Liquidweb. The deal is pretty good and the support is incredible, responds withing minutes.
For the geeks:
The Processor is a Xeon X5-1650 V3 Hexacore with 6 cores (12 threads) at 3.5GHz
The OS and the sites are running on 2x250GB (Raid1) SSDs
The DBs are running on 2x250GB (Raid1) SSDs
The uploaded images are on a 1TB HDD.
16GB DDR4 SDRAM
CPU rarely goes over 30%, typically runs between 5 and 15%.

I suppose civility suggests we tip the server. What would be a fair percentage?
