my LJ isn't working, can you help????




j/king, ;)

If you've basically duplicated your Portland datacenter in San Francisco, it seems like you'll have a lot of servers left over when you're done.

...can I have one?

Thanks, that's awesome. I hope everything goes smooth for y'all, so you don't have to work too late. :)

And in the spirit of unblushing laziness: ljmove.

Watch that work well later tonight.

i see your atom feed and raise you vanilla rss!

I hope this isn't a silly question, but... Are the machines from SM that are currently in Seattle going to be sold off? If so, where? If the answer isn't yes, no need to explain (despite being curious).

It's good to see LJ with the redundancy of two different data centers. Sounds as though the old one won't be staying around, though.

Actually the plan is to have three data centers sometime in the future here.

Three is an excellent number. Good to hear it! Probably won't surprise you that I'm saying similar things to the work techs, even if their systems are small by comparison with those we're used to.

Similar long-term plan at the wiki, likely for mostly the same reasons as you. I want more than three, so one being totally taken out and one temporarily out is less of a burden on the remaining ones. You're quite a bit further along the path than wiki is, though.

Good luck with the move - way too much to break, so you need some of it.

Excellent. Are you planning to have them geographically distributed, or more or less all in the SF area?

Either way, it will be good to see what sort of multi data center solutions you come up with.

(My multi data center MySQL situation is workable, but far from great.)
