Brunei Student Downtime
Data center move - July 11th
A few weeks ago I posted info about an upcoming data center move and this will finally be happening this weekend. In the works for more than a year of planning, coordinating, building and testing, the facility is now live and operational. The new datacenter will incorporate all existing servers to be moved from our current datacenter, to this new facility. Iota and Lamda will not be affected as they are not located at NAC.
The new datacenter has been carefully planned from inception to overcompensate for such factors as cooling, generators, UPS’s, backup generators, fire suppression, and much, much more. The facility has been set in place with 7,500 sq ft of raised flooring, 10 (ten) 20 ton AC units, CCTV system, Biometric Security system, double pre-action fire suppression system, MCI OC48 Full Sonnet Ring, with Dual OC192’s being installed now. Backbone bandwidth providers are MCI and Above.net and Level3 and Global Crossing will be added in the near future.
The specific date of the scheduled move is Sunday, July 11th at 12:00am eastern-standard time. The move will be done as late as possible, during which time, the network will be rerouted to the new facility, and 30-40 movers will assist with the transition of the servers from NAC to the new facility. The estimated downtime will approximately be four to six hours.
HostNexus is deliberately located on a server at another data center so we can be contactable in just this kind of scenario. All staff will be on-hand to answer questions and concerns and the forum will of course also remain online

Hi,
Ive been waiting for the server to be running from 6pm but due to unexpected circumstances it was extended another 6 hours. Imagine 30 trucks full of servers to be move out into a new centre? My host alone has 20 servers to put online + other servers. (approximately 3000++ servers) and only 8 staffs + 3 officials only allowed to work in the new data centre. Glad to be back :)
