Hello, I will need to move one of my servers from one physical location, to another one about 3-5 hours away. My client does not want any down time during the move... So.. Now I have the task of trying to figure out a solution. What would be the best way to move this server? It does quite a bit of traffic (mostly http, peaking at 20 Mbit daily, with a low of 5 Mbit) Now what would be ideal... Is there a good way that I could completely mirror this server to another one at the new location? That way I could serve web pages, etc from the server in the new location while the old one is being moved, then switch it back once the old one is online again. Any suggestions would be welcomed... The machine runs apache, mysql, proftpd and has about 8,500 users.
