Atualização gratuita para Linode 96, ajude a testar o Host4

Estou à procura de 10 a 15 almas corajosas, er, clientes existentes de Linode 64 que estão actualmente no ThePlanet e que estariam dispostos a migrar os seus Linodes para o Host4. Ao mesmo tempo, serão [b]actualizados para o plano Linode 96 gratuitamente[/b] - continuarão [b]a pagar os preços de Linode 64[/b].

O Host4 estava a funcionar há bastante tempo sob 2.4.21 kernel e, como todos sabem, experimentou bloqueios ou mortes silenciosas, em que nenhum kernel oops seria impresso, etc. Isto tornava difícil a depuração do problema. Actualizei a máquina para kernel muito mais recente e tenho andado a martelar nela (correndo alguns fios "[url=http://members.optusnet.com.au/ckolivas/contest/]contest[/url]" para gerar carga) e até agora tudo bem.

Aqui estão as condições:

[list][*]Migrar para alojar4, actualizar para Linode 96 (não são necessárias alterações na sua parte, manter os mesmos IPs, sistemas de ficheiros, etc.)
[*]Recebe-se um Linode 96 ao preço L64.
[*]Se tudo correr bem (digamos 60 dias sem problemas), então pode ficar no anfitrião4 e desfrutar do seu Linode 96 com desconto.
[*]Esteja ciente de que isto significa que aceita a possibilidade de paragem devido a reinicializações
[*]Se houver novamente problemas com o congelamento do host4, as suas antigas ranhuras permanecerão reservadas para que possa voltar para
[*]Se houver problemas, pode desistir a qualquer momento
[*]Se tivermos de o deslocar de volta, estará de volta ao plano Linode 64, mas pode manter o seu espaço extra em disco gratuitamente.
[*] actualização: XFER permanecerá a 25 GB
O que é que vocês pensam? Se estiverem interessados, coloquem aqui uma resposta e eu entrarei em contacto convosco dentro de alguns dias.

Obrigado,
-Chris

    I think this is a wonderful idea. I know I would be happy to migrate my linode with the risks mentioned. As my linode is only a test system I am more then happy to cope any downtime needed.

    I’d be happy to volunteer. My linode does my backup MX and backup DNS, so I can deal with problems that arise.

    Hey, I’m up for a try, too. Currently, I’m not putting a great demand on my linode — mostly using it as a mail-server — so possible downtime isn’t much of a problem. This will change in a couple of months, however.

    Go ahead and sign me up, just put some directions up on exactly what we need to do.

  5. Author Photo

    I’ll volunteer….just let me know what to do

  6. Author Photo

    i’ll be glad to be a guinea pig, as briefly discussed by email.

    Please sign me up as well. I only run a personal site on the lindoe account for email and some web development stuffs.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    If I’m not going to lose any files and IP will not change then sign me up.:-)

    Another volunteer here – I’m currently on Host1. I use my linode for testing/playing around – so down time is no big problem.

    Sign me up for it too 🙂

    I’ll gladly help out testing, and as long as my ips/diskimages will keep intact some downtime won’t be a problem.

    I’m interested too 🙂

    Slots still open? Please count me in as well. 😀

    You can move my linode over. I’m generating sporadic loads, using the linode as a build server.

  17. Author Photo

    I’m willing to sign up as well 😉

    If theres still room i will transfer too.

    I’ve setup the migrations for the first group of people. If you don’t see the migration when you log into the LPM, it probably means we had enough people already. But if you didn’t make the cut I still might contact you if things go well and we need a few more people to load the server.

    Please don’t reboot your Linode or resize your images until AFTER you migrate to host4.

    After the migration your account will say “Brand New” — that will go away after you boot your existing profile for the first time.

    Thanks,

    Hi Chris,

    I have just mirgated my account to host4. After the mirgation, is there any specific tasks that you are looking for to help testing out the server? ie: Should we increase our apache/mysql/cron load/processes in our account?

    Regards,
    Kevin

    If you need another count me in.

  22. Author Photo

    If you need another guinea pig with a decent load, I’ll go.

  23. Author Photo

    Count me in, too, if it’s still available.

  24. Author Photo

    If you still are looking for volunteers, I’m willing.

    This offer is closed, and the problem with Host4 was a kernel bug long gone 🙂 Now these guys are my Guinea Pigs for new kernels 🙂

    Thanks,
    -Chris
