Win20 is now being moved to a virtualized setup as its having a large problem with staying stable as a physical server. There's been a problem since the RAID array broke several weeks back and it failed to rebuild twice, and we're left with no choice but to move its data to new services. This is the preferred new way to launch, deploy and restore all servers and all will be virtualized going forward, as the hardware nodes are both harder to restore and having a lot more trouble overall.
 
Win20 is running more stable now, but we are proceeding in prep/move to virtualized server at the same time, as it may take 10-12 hours to do the server creation process in Hsphere.
 
We've got files restored and the physical creator portions done, but not going to make the new server live till this evening when traffic is less. We've got file content out of sync a little, but the old server is not working stable enough with network load of websites to sync the newest data to the new server. So most of the data is quite static, but we'll be updating on demand for anyone that needs a 'latest' data sync once all goes live. We're also going to attempt to load anyone using access databases (not recommended mind you) for their sites to the latest access DB files manually. We've got SSL moved across already so SSL will be in sync between servers.
 
Migration is successfully completed.
If you are getting any error then open a support ticket.
