Potential downtime tomorrow [rss]

Tomorrow, I will be working on moving the majority of Cyberix's files off of the host OS and onto a separate drive that'll be accessed by it.

Benefits of doing this:

1 - I can raise the file upload limits for both anonymous and registered users 2 - ^ the same thing but on our XMPP instance 3 - I don't have to worry about what's eating a gigabyte of space on the server's 10 gigabyte host drive (3.97 gigs are being taken as we speak) 4 - Should be easier for me to back everything up

There aren't really many short-term instant effects to doing this. I'm just doing this to ensure the longevity and functionality of Cyberix remains stable and smooth.

If all goes well, I might post the site's overall structure and setup here for others to benefit from when they decide to self host their own stuff.

Downtime tonight.

Downtime over.

Enjoy 32 megabyte max filesize limit. Much bigger than 11. Might consider bumping up even more if needed but honestly I don't know why you'd need anything bigger than 15 megs... Maybe I'm still old-fashioned on that one.

Remember: Anonymous users have attachments removed after 10-15 minutes automatically and are limited to 1 attachment per post. Registered users reserve permanent attachment archival (unless they are moderated) and can post five attachments per post.
