The move has started

however any posts made at the new place will be lost when we do the incremental which will probably be tonight.

If you restore an incremental/differential backup into a database that has been modified (by subsequent test posts) since the corresponding full backup was restored, won't you get....a big mess?

I will do a final backup that overwrites the posts at the other end, I am just about test it now.

Here are some performance stats for a deep page from around the globe (ignoring DNS resolution time):

Code: Select all

		Connect	1st Byte	last byte	Size
Old	0.132		0.190		0.133		6505 		Munich
New	0.025		0.153		0.024		6561 		Munich
					
Old	0.056		0.166		0.056		6505 		Seattle
New	0.154		0.294		0.154		6561 		Seattle
					
Old	0.223		1.279		0.224		6505 		Brisbane
New	0.331		0.484		0.328		6561 		Brisbane

Pretty much in line with expectations.

Thanks Rox, they are looking OK for the most.

I just ran a test backup to the new place and it appears the posts went over without issues so that part is covered

I've just tried the link and the new site opened up quickly.
Not sure if this is of any help 'cos it's a bit later!

Near instantaneous to load ...

Access to forums is OK - needed to log in but that was to be expected. Hidden forums were not there until I had logged in - as expected.
