Schedule for Transitioning Servers
Laneta runs 5 servers in Canada (mx1, mx3, mx23, mx24, mx25). All are running Debian, all are running a 686 kernel. 90% of Laneta users are on mx1, mx3 is dedicated to mailman-lists, and remaining servers providing services dedicated to single members.
mx1 is running Debian Etch, mx23 is running Debian Lenny. The remaining servers are running Debian Squeeze. (That is correct, sorry about my past confusion: Enrique)
The first goal is to move all resources to MFPL so we can stop payment on the Canadian servers. The absolute deadline for this process is January 7 (based on the billing cycle). The goal is to move all servers by mid December.
Note: about the deadline for this process, we should consider different days for each server because the billing cycle is different for each one of them:
- mx24 2011-12-04 mmsc - dedicated server
- mx3 2011-12-09 laneta - mailman server
- mx23 2011-12-25 rosalux - dedicated half server
- mx1 2012-01-07 laneta - main server
- mx25 2012-05-15 cimac - dedicated server
