**Edit: migration completed. Apologies for the reboots. **

Everything is working smoothly except for the network configuration. I wanted to make some changes but I didn’t manage to get this new network configuration to work. For now I’ve left it with the old configuration and with some time I’ll fiddle around with subnet masks and static routes in order to improve VM isolation. Since Yiffit is currently the only VM on the server (packmates.org is next), it doesn’t matter that much right now.

OLD POST BELOW


I’m preparing a migration to the new server that I’ve set up. The change should be transparent for you as users for now except for the small downtime of about 1h that could happen between today and tomorrow (I’m sorry for not being able to be more exact since it depends on some variables such as me doing testing to ensure that everything will work correctly).

After the migration, I’ll share more details and also explain the new setup and which benefits we can expect from the new server in the future.

Thank you and apologies for the inconvenience <3

      Sorry, I think I never replied to you. The physical server itself is already running proxmox VE 8.0, which is based on debian. Yiffit itself is running on ubuntu within proxmox and that won’t change since migration will consist on shutting down the VM, making an exportable backup copy, sending the copy over to the new server and restoring the backup :P

      It’s quite easy and I already did a test run this afternoon, although without network connectivity to avoid the old backup sending out traffic to the world.
