Moving servers difficulty?

#1 Postby Upload Spot » Aug 12, 2008 3:29 pm

I have currently around 250GB of space.

How hard would this be to change it over to two smaller servers?

IE:

Have my ~250GB of space moved to just a download server, main website served by another server. How would I go about updating the links, adding the servers in the admin side?

I would like to spread it out across more servers instead of having all of my eggs in one basket.

As far as I understand you wanna distinct Main server from FileServer. No problem. Use FileServer install instructions for new server, then copy XFSConfig.pm from old to new server, update paths there if need. Then go to Server management and update URLs & IP for fileserver so it will point to new server. Then it should run just fine I think.
