*** This announcement applies only to clients with websites or services on Linux server NS29/NS30/CPANEL29 with existing IP addresses 66.55.155.155-158. Please ignore if you do not have an active site or service on that server ***

Dear Customer,

The existing server NS29/NS30/CPANEL29 has been planned to be retired. Starting Friday night, 10th June 2022, we will be migrating all accounts from the old NS29/NS30/CPANEL29 Linux server to a new server to improve performance and reliability.

The new server region will be in India which will benefit majority of the customers on that server with faster connect and speeds compared to the present server in the US. The new server will also feature updates in software including the availability of PHP 8 (along with all older versions) and MySQL 8. We understand that this can have breaking changes for some older sites and we can help troubleshoot or re-migrate your site in case of any issues to another server with MySQL 5.7. In case you would like to remain on a US based server, please let us know in reply to this email.

Migration will be started on Friday night to try and ensure that it is completed over the weekend to minimise impact on your website and emails. Services on the old server will be stopped after migration and DNS resolution. It will then subsequently be discontinued entirely, one week after the migration on 17th June 2022.

We will be changing name servers to point all domains to the new server after data is completely moved. This way, domains will continue working on the old server till they resolve to the new server. If you are using external or custom name servers, please update the IP in your DNS service to 103.187.238.30. If you use *.nettigritty.net or *.interactivedns.com nameservers, changes will be made automatically for you. We recommend keeping file activity (FTP / File Manager/ Adding new files or making website modification) on your account at minimum during the migration starting Friday.

IMPORTANT: If you have custom nameservers based on your domain or if you are using external nameservers (not of the server), you will require to make IP address changes once accounts are copied to the new IP 103.187.238.30.

Please feel free to create a ticket or email nettigritty@nettigritty.com if you have any queries or need any assistance.
