Default Advance notice of downtime, Sunday 4th October 2009
Hi All,

MTS will be offline for much of the day tommorow (European time) as I will be upgrading both mySQL servers. This should hopefully alleviate some of the issues with stalled connections / time outs / invalid post/thread issues, and so on. I say should becuase I wont know till I try it.

I will be updating the status of the site on twitter (http://twitter.com/DelphyMTS) as the day progresses. Thank you in advance for your patience and please bear with us while we perform this essential maintenance.

3 users say thanks for this. (Who?)

I probably won't notice that the site is down, since I'll be busy for most of the day.

*narrows eyes*
I only have the weekend to go online. This could've been done during the week, and I probably wouldn't have noticed.
But no.
You chose to take away half of my weekend.


jk

But seriously.

It's like my favorite toystore being close after I FINALLY got my Mom to drive me to it...

I *think* I noticed some of the downtime that day. How did the upgrade go, and does it seem to be helping, as best as you can tell from your end?

The upgrade went very well. In fact, the site seems just as fast as it was - which might not seem terribly impressive, except that currently db is handling the entire load. db2 is currently offline.
