More Server Upgrades: Lacking Sleep
If last night wasn't late enough due to the event and the fried phone lines, we were adding in a new database server last night, into our cluster.
The addition was scheduled for midnight. I was supposed to be sleeping while it happened. Instead, I was up between 12:15 and 1:30 or later testing to make sure all our sites and applications worked.
There were some small glitches here and there, but now most of our sites and applications are now running off a new database server in our cluster. Failovers should work well also, but who knows.
I honestly hate dealing with hosting, hate it.
