Heimdallr and I returned just shortly from a trip to the new hosting facility. Talk about going through security check after check. I am sure that I have never felt as safe as I did this afternoon at the new hosting facility. The servers made it, though how well is still being worked on ^_^. The team there, yes the blue man group is there running more cable, putting rails in and latching in the servers. Our system admins did a lot of pre-emptive work to help speed up the process, and yes we are still in a waiting mode.
Servers landed and are currently being put in, once they are put in then all the plugging in for power and network starts. Once all that is go, then some testing of the network there and as quickly but slowly each network is brought back online for our own testing before we can release them into the wild. What I can tell you is that we are still a few hours away from our own testing being done and once we are to that stage Heimdallr or myself will keep you posted.
I do have pictures, but due to security responsibilities they asked that they approve the pictures before we post anything. They understandably have a lot of clients that do hosting with them and out of respect for their request we wait until tomorrow to show you pictures of the game servers new home.
It’s already afternoon. Is it done yet?
Well that’s nice it’s good to know the servers are in a safe spot. :]
