Subject: Bouncing services to the new machine?
Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2003 18:58:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030110185839.GA28398@redhat.com> (raw)

I was thinking of transitioning services to the new system on a
piecemeal basis using something like nc to redirect accesses from one
system to another.

This would obviously introduce a large lag in the connection but are
there other problems with that?  I'm just a little concerned that I've
forgotten some esoteric thing on the new system which will inconvenience
people when I bring it online.  If I redirect things in this way, I'll
be able to fall back to the old system quickly if the new system screws
up.

I could redirect mail, ftp, and http, I think.  non-anon-cvs would be
problematic since it relies on ssh.

Anyone ever done anything like this?  Bad idea?  Good idea?
