The move to the new system with CP04 caused a TON of downtime... like 32 hours which wasn't super, especially because the two days that my site www.reviewum.com was down were to be a few of the biggest days of the year..... oh well.
The great news is that Andrew did an EXCELLENT job of keeping us posted in the forum, and when everything came back up he was VERY quick to respond to and fix problems!
Keep up the great work Andrew... my only concern now is not having any backups of my sites!!!
Speaking of which, I've asked this before, but I just can't comprehend the ramifications if it were to happen....
With the new system, if a hard drive fails (which they do) then all customers on that server (which is probably MANY) will have to have backups of their sites either locally or through Dathorn (paid)?
I'm thinking that human nature is to just say, "it will never happen" but if / when it does... oh boy!!!
Like I said, I just can't comprehend that there isn't any kind of backup at all on these servers.
I think Andrew should just increase all the plans by $1 per gig (making the basic plan $15.50 a month). This should average out nicely since I'm pretty sure that 90% of the users are only using 50% of their disk space.
What do you all think about this?
