The Sunncity hosting server is being migrated to new hardware today. No downtime is expected during the migrate itself, however updating the content of your website during this migration may fail as there may be a delay between the copying the contents of your account and the domain switch to the new IP. Changes made between these two times will likely not be preserved and will have to be performed again once your domain's IPs have been updated for the new servers.

The following are the nameservers your domains should be using for this server:

hip1.hostupon.com
hip2.hostupon.com

All domains already using these nameservers should continue to operate normally without problems after the migrations. Any domains using custom nameservers will need to be updated with new HOST (or child nameserver) records. This notice will be updated with the IP addresses of the new nameservers once they are available for use.

UPDATE: The migrations are now complete. If you have custom HOST records, these are the IP addresses for your new nameservers:

At this time our admins have taken the Supernova hosting server offline for unexpected, but required filesystem maintenance. We expect the outage to last approximately one hour. Once service has been restored, we will update this notice.

--Update-- 1:30PM: Maintenance is taking longer than expected, but has not halted. This is due to the size of the disk partition and how long it takes to complete filesystem check operations. Once it completes, the server should be ready to bring online. We will continue to keep this post updated with information as it's available.

 

--Update-- The filesystemc check has completed and the server is back up and opterating normally at this time.

Our administrators have begun maintenance on the galaxy hosting server. This notice is being posted because the IP addresses for the server will be changing.

All customers using custom nameserver records (instead of using the hostupon nameservers) will need to update thier nameserver records! The new IP addresses for your nameservers are:

199.16.154.3

199.16.154.4

Because these are our clustered domain nameservers, they already contain your records so it is safe to update your nameservers now before the maintenance is complete. If you do so, you should not notice any major outages for your site.

The server will be brought down for roughly 1-2 hours maximum however we will do our best to get the server online ASAP.  This is an upgrade as well as system checks to ensure the server is faster, more stable and optimal.

 

Update 2:50PM EST:  The server is back online, we will be monitoring services however as of right now all websites are operational

Our administrators received reports of outage a short while ago and have begun a combined software/hardware upgrade on the Cloud hosting server to resolve it. At this time, php services on the server are down. (You will see "internal server error" reports. HTML rendering is still working, as is cPanel and mysql services. Email is also unaffected at this time.)

Our administrators are doing everything possible to get this fixed as quickly as possible but unfortunately we do not yet have an estimate of how long this will take.

Once we have any further details, this notice will be updated.

 

UPDATE: 5:30PM EDT June 20 2011:

PHP service has been restored and sites are back up and running. The server is now running APACHE and php 5.3. Since it is no longer running Litespeed HTTPD, many of the issues related to the Cloud server that have been affecting it over the last several weeks should be resolved. This includes the server's original incompatibility with the UBR_UPLOADER system phpmotion uses to handle video uploads.

 

Update: Due to some errors clients may be encountering we will be reverting php back to 5.2 rather than 5.3

We will be taking the Galaxy server down for a file system scan/check.  The downtime will affect clients on Galaxy and all services will be down during the maintenance.  The file system check should take roughly 60 minutes however it may be shorter or longer depending on the status of the file system.  This is a routine maintenance and is done to ensure the integrity of the drives.  We will update progress once we begin and complete the task.

Please refrain from submitting a ticket regarding this issue unless you have specific questions or concerns.

Thank you
