New server
Posted: Fri Nov 15, 2013 12:21 pm
I've got a new physical server. I plan on moving the minecraft server over to the new server when we update to 1.7.
To be clear, the only thing that will change is the hardware this server is run on. The map and all player files, etc. will not be changed at all by the move.
There are two downsides to this though. Firstly, it will mean downtime. I want to both update and run bukkit's structure saving script during the move. I'd expect the server to be down for at least a couple of hours during the move.
The second thing is that the server will be moved over to a new IP. For those of you who connect to simpvp.net or play.simplicitypvp.net won't notice anything change at all (should hopefully be most of you.) But if anybody for some reason still connects directly to the IP, then you will have to change to the new IP in your server list.
There will be another announcement with more details when I'm about to do the move.
I plan on moving the hc server before 1.7. But it shouldn't take long.
