Our old server served us well (no pun intended) but we felt that 2013 was the time to upgrade. Our brand new web server has been set up and we intend to copy our clients' accounts - including all web files and e-mails - over to it today (08/02/2013). The new server will provide us with more processing power, more RAM, extra bandwidth and extra space which will improve the load/response time and performance of your site. It will also continue to include daily backups and provide up-to-date versions of all current programs, as listed below:
Server Information
cPanel Version: 11.34.1 (build 7)
Apache version: 2.2.23
PHP version: 5.3.20
MySQL version: 5.1.66-cll
Architecture: x86_64
Operating system: Linux
Perl version: 5.8.8
In addition to this, we will also be creating additional hosting packages in the coming weeks to provide even more tailored hosting options for our customers.
For our current customers, we advise that you do not make any changes to your website today or over the course of the weekend and/or until you have received confirmation of your transfer. Any changes made before you receive confirmation will be lost in the migration.
Once the transfer of your site has been completed your domain name will need to be updated to point to the new server before it will become live. (There will be no downtime necessary as both servers will be running concurrently during the transition period.) If you registered your domain name with us then we will update your records for you and you don’t need to do anything. If you registered your domain name via another provider then you will need to ensure your records are updated to the information below:
Your site will now be using the following name servers:
ns1.rhyemedia.com.au 114.111.156.165
ns2.rhyemedia.com.au 114.111.156.164
or
a record 114.111.156.165
You will receive an email once we have tested your site on the new server to let you know that it is ready for re-delegation.
If you need assistance with these changes or have any questions please feel free to contact us for additional information.
