ZG GRAND MOVE

Post by [ZG] BubblesDevere »

Hi everyone, (the below was my second thought) but we moved anyway :) just the game servers!

I have been looking at the possibility for a VPS to host our 2 game servers, and the zgeist.eu domain.
Cost wise it would be the same, but the amount of man hours required to do this migration and installation is massive.

Since I am alone to do this (and am already busy with the daily maintenances), it will not be possible for me to handle more at the moment.
Also there is the risk of having all your eggs in one basket....

It is a shame, because the end product would be wonderful, but with one person and my limited skills on some topics, it does not make much sense at the moment.
I hope to work a bit harder on the patron program, and who knows, make smaller coffees, for instance if everyone could help with 1 euro a month , it would be possible to cover some of the cost and hire a PHP expert to help us with much needed improvements.
This should be done before thinking of migrating.

So for now, we will have to do like the Germans say: never touch a running system.

I would like to say a special thank you to the players/patrons who contribute to help bringing the costs down. applaude applaude applaude
It is because of you that I am able to continue to provide a good and free gaming experience to all hl2dm players!

So a comprimise was found :)

I moved us to a better server, with better services!
The ping of most should be improved
The machine we use has far more resources and drive space has doubled!

MAIN SERVER - 195.20.241.216:27015
MATCH SERVER - 195.20.241.216:27025

Below you will see the CPU activity between midnight and midnight !
Considering that we had 18 players and a birthday party, the fact that the CPU just reached 50% is Excellent news ! :Wink4 :Wink4 :Wink4

Below you see the network activity. These spikes are each time all clients downloaded maps at once, large maps larger spikes.

Very nice! I also noticed that unlike the old one, which was based on the old platform, the new one uses a modern containerization platform. Very simple, fast and secure. New level, great upgrade!
