working to transfer board again: expect downtime

[Karlin]

I am probably going to be working on the board tonight and/or tomorrow (Sunday) and if so the board will be offline for periods of time while I try to see if I can successfully transfer the database.

Apologies for the inconvenience but the spam account registrations are now major headaches daily as they all require individual deletion, and I want to move to different software to manage these more easily (as well as adding in the other new features for the board).

[Cathy Moon]

Good luck, Karlin, I hope it goes smoothly for you! :thnku: for all your hard work!!

[Zippy]

:cffee:

Thanks for the warning and good luck! :)

[duncans_ma]

Can't wait to see all your hard work pay off!

Good Luck!

Thanks for all your hard work to make this board safe and fun.

[Bronte]

Thanks for all your time and hard work.

This board is great!

[Cathy T]

Can't wait to see the new features! But don't keep us down too long...the withdrawal pains are awful ;)

[Julie S]

Yes, those spammers are annoying. :crash: Thanks for all your hard work - we certainly appreciate it!

[Nicki]

Good luck Karlin...everyone will have their paws and fingers crossed that it all goes smoothly...

Thank you Karlin for all your work. I thought you'd been quiet for a while, I've been missing your comments. :flwr: :flwr:

[Maxxs_Mummy]

Good luck with it all, Karlin :thmbsup: Thanks for keeping the board spam free and working so hard to keep it running smoothly :flwr:

I was in Mexico for a week with no internet access. cl*p I am hoping to get this transfer done but it depends on whether I can get a few hours just to work on it. And if it works!

Good luck and we do appreciate the board and all the work you do :flwr:

[Caraline]

Hope the transfer goes smoothly, and thank you for all the hard work you do so that we may all enjoy this forum. :flwr:

[Remali]

Thanks for letting us know....I love this place!

Well I failed at getting this done -- there's been an update to the board software already so I have to install that, then go thru the migration process as a test run a few times, then will be ready to move the board.

I needed to do some updates to my SM Infosite as there were some new documents out and I wanted to add links for abstracts and slides from the Nov. SM conference in London and that ate up most of today. :(

Tomorrow (Monday) is a holiday in Ireland so I might get this done tomorrow; otherwise it will move to the end of the week as I have a lot on workwise, midweek.

Very frustrating as we are almost there except for this last push. :?

[Karlin]

I am going to try this again this weekend; just a warning that wth luck, you'll log on to see a new board; with bad luck, you will get a board down notice. :)
