My site has been here since I started (it’s on wincf). I want to create a new DB but it will end up on mysql3, an older and slower server. I keep having timeout issues with existing pages and dbs on wincf and mysql3. Is there a way to get my new DB to be created on one of the newer, and less overstuffed mysql servers?
Maybe there’s a way to smoothly move my whole site to a new Linux server without downtime?? :flypig:

DB servers don’t move like that, mysql3 is not overloaded, but you are right it is older, and it also is a web server as well if I remember properly so it is more prone to having spikes that may cause this.
The best way to get a new DB server is to make a
SQL db on another account and use it from the other account, DB traffic isnt accounted anyway so it is not a problem.
Thanks Stephen. I just usurped a non-paying client’s account and created a DB there.
