The migration for Sakurajima Social to a RHEL based server didn’t quite work out. To make my job easier, I will be moving the existing VM to the new host using Xen Orchestra. This will take a bit longer. While the server is on the same datacenter, it will take about 2 hours and 10 minutes to copy the VM. This is due to the VM having failed backups, leading to left over snapshots. This mean the server will be down for longer with no page being shown, until the DNS record is updated.
We might use a disk cloning tool to make the task quicker, but doing a migration in Xen Orchestra is probably the safest option. However, since no reconfiguration is needed, we will be up quicker.
With that, we apologize for the inconvenience.
