  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

File Library Teams

We need Teams of members to help us restore the file library to this server. I would prefer to tackle this with members from each forum section.

The new file library has the same structure as the old library. One for one we need to download the files and then upload them here. I almost have a document done to show you how to upload files here. I need to know who will be helping us so I can get permissions set correctly. Once the file is uploaded you will change the file owner to the original member who uploaded it.

Once it is uploaded here I want to remove it from the old library.

All covered in the document I think... Still writing it

And on another note uploads at our old server are shut off. Upload all new files to this server. The resources section is actually pretty cool.

Please reply in the thread below with your intention to help and which section you will help with.

 
Since a few of the downloads in the library are mine, I feel sort of obliged to chip in, unless of course you want me to spend my time on doing more textures...
 
@jankees

(y) do what you can when you can. Just let me know which ones you moved over here when you do them. I plan on deleting them daily or weekly as they are added.

And just so everyone knows @PRB and myself have a complete copy of all of the files and database off the server. Between the 4 locations they are stored we are not likely to lose anything.
 
No preferences either, but let me start with whatever MSFS, and we'll take it from there!
 
I wish i could be of more use on this but i am in the middle of building myself a new system and almost all of my harddisks (m2) are already installed in the new one under the monoblock.
I computer i still use is running on a bare minimum of hd space. Bad timing i guess.
