Title: Migration Update
Post by: Kestryll on March 13, 2024, 12:27:36 PM
The Cloud update and migration is set up, I have the cloud account already. The migration is waiting for some info they asked about.
This is part of what they sent me after setting up the account.

Quote
Hello,
Thank you for your interest in migrating to the vBulletin Cloud product.
The first step is to close your forum to new posts/registrations via AdminCP.  The reason for this is simple - we can't do partial imports, only a FULL database import.   If you don't close your forum before backing up, any new threads, posts or new registrations will NOT be moved over to your Cloud site as they will not be included in the backup you give us.
Please note that custom styles that are not Style Variable and CSS changes ONLY (i.e. third party styles with custom images) and plugins will not be migrated. Custom styles and plugins are not compatible with vBulletin Cloud.

After I get them the info they want it's likely we'll be down for a day or two.
Also the plugins they refer to include iTrader, I've looked for ways to make it work with the newer vB versions but it's almost 20 years old and not current at all. I'm still looking for a replacement for iTrader that will work.

Yeah, it's been doing it's yo-yo thing all morning, up-down, up down.  I've been going between Net and Org since about 0300 hrs.

I hope the migration goes smoothly...

I didn't see the rule.  Did they have to be female 'boobs?'  Couple that with 'visible abs' and an M60 doing it's thing.  Bottom line is if I'm going to remain 'trapped' in California, I might as well think of it along the lines of the D.I.'s hypothetical with Rodriguez' reply (see at 4:02 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_LqoElctAU (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_LqoElctAU)), coupled with Chesty Puller's observation in Korea...

BTW: Watch the film.  There is a scene where it is 'backwards' when shooting and since this is a 'reverse' of the real site, well...

Well a salt water pool with plam trees will take longer. Plus you have to let the concrete cure before you can fill it .

This is the latest from the support staff doing the update and migration.

Just to keep you up to date - the upgrade from vB3 to vB6 is still running.  The database structure in vB6 is completely different to that in vB3 so all of your post and thread data has to be rewritten to the newer format which, on a forum of your size, can take some time.

Once the database conversion is complete we will then get it migrated into the vB Cloud site and let you know when that's completed.

Don't forget all the "patches" that have been done over the years to make CGN work.  It probably take a huge amount of work just to make the data base  work in its new environment.  I think we will be in CGO for a long time

I didn't figure it would be instantaneous; but, we'll see how long they drag things out and what comes up... and what doesn't.

As I've said, there are likely to be 'problems' which show up no matter what you do or how hard you work at it.  On top of that, just the fact that many who've made it here don't even seem to know why the main site is currently down is likely indicative of the mindset you're up against from members.

So... Thanks for the update and the effort.

Still patiently waiting...
