Hello ~vern members,
|
|
|
|
We have decided to move our Data-SSD from BtrFS to ZFS in light of the issues we have heard about regarding BtrFS' stability.
|
|
|
|
The migration will be done the coming Sunday, 30th Oct 2022. The specific time of downtime will be announced in our [announcements channel](https://vern.cc#community) before the migration.
|
|
|
|
The amount of data to be backed up and copied is around 220 GB.
|
|
|
|
I estimate that the migration will take up around 6 hours in total (including backup to MirrorHDD, resizing, copying etc.) and we would have around 2 hours of downtime total.
|
|
|
|
We apologize for this downtime but if we do not do it now it would be a pain to do it in the future due to more storage use etc.
|
|
|
|
UPDATE: Since we had [another downtime this week](/blog/29oct-tilserv-downtime), the zfs migration has been rescheduled to next sunday (6th november).
