Moving three servers: barranca, van, runts

We will be moving the servers barranca.dreamhost.com, van.dreamhost.com, runts.dreamhost.com to a new rack at 12:00pm PDT (-0800). They will each be down for about 10 minutes. For those of you hosted on these servers, your web sites as well as FTP/shell access will be down during this time. Mail service will not be interrupted. Sorry for the short notice and inconvenience.

Update Wed Sep 27 13:23:57 PDT 2006: All three servers have been moved and are back online.

    Woohoo for the current trend of infrequent problems!

  9. Doug Says:

    I liked it better when blog comments were off.

  10. David Harrison Says:

    Ironically, you used the comments to say that.

  11. Doug Says:

    Very good, David! Now, what color is blue?

  12. Doug Says:

    By the way, for the guy complaining about howellhouse.org, your problems is simply solved:

    1. Disable the Google Analytics plugin, which is the real reason your site is slow to load.
    2. As Dreamhost strongly recommends, enable wp-cache.

  13. David Harrison Says:

    My my, aren’t you personable, I bet you have to beat the ladies off with a stick.

  14. Doug Says:

    Yes, I am quite personable, and I have plenty of female admirers, which obviously is a point of jealousy for you, David.

    You see, I am far smarter than you, and that’s why you are lonely: You’re so slow-witted, you forge the kind of comebacks made by a grade-school special-needs students. At least, I think the last time I heard a retort as lame as yours was by Little Johnny Retard, back when I was 10.

    You’d think that since you obviously aren’t even close to my intellectual equivalent, you’d remain silent. Apparently, you’re as dumb as I think you are. That probably explains why you’re stalking me: You’re jealous that you only drive women crazy enough to leap into the nearest volcano, bus lane or abyss.

    Remember, arguing on the internet is like winning the special olympics. Even if you win, you’re still retarded.

    Um… all of my Wordpress databases are down…and I can’t login to account control panel - says there’s an error making a secure connection. So I can’t start a support ticket. This is banana doo doo pie. Please fix! Thanks. Kyle
