FIRE0001 is currently the last VPS node on one of our blade servers and we are currently migrating all clients over to FIRE0002 temporarily until the new FIRE0001 is online. FIRE0001 was being used primarily for our high usage clients so FIRE0001 only account for 4% of our total clients. We will be monitoring the usage closely and if there is any impact to our current clients we will act swiftly to manage the loads.

Current ETA for the new FIRE0001 is this weekend at some point but unfortunately in order to do that there are many many steps that need to be taken. Here is an outline for this project:

  1. Migrate the VPSs from FIRE0001 to FIRE0002 for temporary placement.
  2. Build new server for SolusVM Master, Website, Internal Services, and ICE0001 (ICE0001 will become virtualized to allow better expansion and portability for our web hosting clients).
  3. Migrate ICE0001 to new virtualized home.
  4. Build new server for FIRE0001.
  5. Migrate clients back over to FIRE0001.
  6. Retire all blade servers.
  7. Restrict FIRE0001 and FIRE0002 VPSs back to 100Mbps.
No downtime is expected for any of our clients and no IPs will be changed. There may be some downtime for our website and SolusVM Master but we will be working to restore these as soon as possible. We will be setting SecureDragon.net to point to our informational site (Drgn.biz) so that users will still be able to follow our progress and communicate with us.

Thank you all for your patience these past months. We have been essentially rebuilding our whole infrastructure and once these blades are retired we will have completed our rebuild and can focus on the future!
