Dear all,
I am pleased to be able to announce that our public test
database has moved onto new hardware. The website will
follow suit.
That move was necessitated by the contract with our previous
provider running out. The virtual machine is now a 64 bit
Debian (it used to be on a 32 bit install) which will allow
us to upgrade the VM to Debian/Trixie and beyond. It has
served us well, surviving upgrades of no less than five
major Debian version, starting with Jessie. It also ran
PostgreSQL all the way from v9 onwards.
As for technicalities, the hostname stays the same:
publicdb.gnumed.de
with only the IP changing such that existing clients should
transparently start connecting to the new PostgreSQL
instance.
Let us know of any breakage you might encounter.
Regards,
Karsten
