I'd appreciate some overseer availability/assistance/advice. My rough plan is to: - announce to the various groups that there will be outage(s) next week Next monday: - bring down most network services on server - do a couple of final rsyncs from server.->server[45] - IP-number-exchange server5 <-> server - bring up server5 running basically nothing, just ssh - then activate network services one by one as their files/configurations are hand-massaged, in this likely order of priorities: - git/cvs - mail - httpd - other stuff (If people are too worried about the loss of some email or somesuch during the back-on transition, I guess we could firewall everything off until everything is up, then let the awaiting hordes in.) If things go too south, I'd undo the renumbering, and be back where we were. - FChE
