monitor droplet move

Hey there,

We have some good news! We are upgrading your Droplet to the latest version of our cloud, so we can bring you the latest features on the DigitalOcean platform.

This message is to inform you on December 30, 2014 between 12:30 and 18:30 UTC, your Droplet’s hypervisor will begin the migration process. During a period of approximately 6 hours all of the Droplets on the hypervisor where your Droplet resides will be migrated to a new host. We spread out the migrations to ensure that each runs in a timely manner and completes successfully.

When your Droplet is queued for migration it will be powered off and you can expect about 1 minute of downtime per GB of your Droplet’s disk size. We understand that you may be running services that are mission critical, so of course you have the option to upgrade your Droplet on your own at a time that is more convenient.

You can read more about how to complete this upgrade on your own by following the link below:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-manually-initiate-droplet-upgrade-to-latest-digitalocean-cloud

Once the upgrade is complete, please check that all your services are running as expected. If you have any issues please check your configuration as specific services you are running may need to be restarted.

Please feel free to reply to this email if you have any questions, and we’ll make sure this process is as simple as possible.

Thank you, The DigitalOcean Team

Looks like it is better to migrate earlier, but the link is broken.

[chadwhitacre]

Link fixed.

So, can we upgrade right now? I mean I am for upgrading immediately.

[chadwhitacre]

@rummik can if she wants.

@whit537 I don't think I have access to Digital Ocean, just the droplet itself

[chadwhitacre]

Okay, I'm just going to let them do it for us.

Closing since this has already happened.
