Dated: October 15, 2004
We have taken the decision to upgrade MSSQL2 to a new server. Currently, MSSQL2 runs on a Pentium 4 2.8GHZ HT processor with 200GBx2 SATA HD in RAID1.
We will be switching it to a Intel XEON 2.4GHZ server with a 73GB SCSI hard disk. We expect the XEON/SCSI combination should considerably improve performance on this server which does some heavy processing and can get bogged down during peak hours.
The shift is scheduled for Monday, October 18th. It will take place starting from 1AM EDT and may last for upto 120minutes. During this time, MSSQL2 will become unavailable and hence we ask customers to turn off MSSQL areas of their site during this period or inform their visitors of the unavailability of that portion of their site
We hope our customers understand the necessity of this move.
