As part of the server shuffling process, I am shutting down one of the web servers and moving it to a school funded box. Expect server downtime within the week. The new server should be somewhat faster at rendering web pages, which is kind of slow at the moment as the database server is overloaded. (there's a lot of queries going through it at the moment due to all kinds of projects I am running).
Note: Web servers does not host game servers. The server for game servers has already been provisioned, just not set up yet.
Old Server and New Server Specs for those who are interested
OLD
Processor: AMD Athlon64 X2 4400+ (Dual Core)
RAM: 2GB
HDD: 2 X 250 GB HDD JBOD
OS: Windows 2008 Web x64
Average Processor Usage this month: 92.4% (Clearly Overloaded)
NEW
Processor: 2 X AMD Opteron 2216 HE
RAM: 8GB
HDD: 2 X 500GB HDD RAID 1 (Hardware Areca Controller)
OS: Windows 2008 Standard x64
Since the old server is still being used for other tasks, the new server shouldn't be flooded too much and should mostly run RKS related stuff (box is overpowered for this purpose, but WTH.)
Note: This will be another Windows box. That means I now officially have more Windows boxes than Linux boxes. WTF.
