| Eclipse.org Hardware Migration</b></span></b></h1> | |
| <p>The Eclipse Foundation will soon begin a hardware migration. The key | |
| goals of this migration are to move the existing eclipse.org infrastructure | |
| to powerful new servers, as well as reorganize the technical layout of | |
| the resources. We want to make sure that everyone is aware of the key | |
| dates, because there will be impacts on the site's availability as the | |
| transition is done. </p> | |
| <p>We are planning on moving in three phases. The first phase will involve | |
| installing the backend servers and transition the Bugzilla and Download | |
| servers to the new environment. This will also allow us to test our new | |
| server backend while allowing for the least impact on the community, because | |
| downloads will continue to be available from our mirrors. In the second | |
| phase we will move the web server and the newsgroups, and in the third | |
| phase, the remaining servers will be migrated, including our mailing lists | |
| and CVS. </p> | |
| <p>Questions about this migration can be directed to <a href="mailto:webmaster@eclipse.org">webmaster@eclipse.org</a>. | |
| </p> | |
| <p><b>Key Dates:</b></p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>Sunday, February 20, 2005 - Phase I: Install backend servers and transition | |
| download and bugzilla servers</li> | |
| <li>Saturday, February 26, 2005 - Phase II: Transition the web server</li> | |
| <li>Saturday, March 26, 2005 - Phase III: Transition dev.eclipse.org, | |
| the mailing lists and CVS</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <p><b>Phase I - Planned outage</b><br> | |
| In this phase, the central infrastucture for eclipse.org will be put in | |
| place, as well as the Bugzilla and Download services. The projected outage | |
| will begin on Saturday, February 19th at 11:59pm EST and complete by Sunday, | |
| February 20th 11:59pm EST. During the outage, eclipse.org services will | |
| be affected as follows: </p> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li>Bugzilla and the Main Eclipse Download server will be unavailable. | |
| </li> | |
| <li>Mirror synchronization will be unavailable.</li> | |
| <li>CVS, Mailing lists and newsgroups will be unaffected. </li> | |
| <li>www.eclipse.org will be unaffected. </li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <p> We apologize for the inconvenience, and we appreciate your patience | |
| during the transition! </p> | |
| <p><b>Phase II - III</b><br> | |
| More details about the planned outages for Phase II and III will be announced | |
| early in the week of February 21st. <br> | |
