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>
