Server migration notification

Over the last 72 hours, we have experienced two major downtimes on server tiger. While in both cases the issues were eventually resolved, we have evaluated the situation and have decided to migrate all accounts on that server to a new server (named panda) hosted at a different datacenter in order to improve the overall reliability and meet the uptime levels our customers expect.

Both direct clients and resold accounts will be migrated over the next few days. For customers with their domain names registered through KowloonHosting, you will not need to anything from your end as everything will be taken care of by our server admins, you will receive by email your new access details when migration is completed. For other customers, as well as resellers, you will be notified by e-mail of the new IP address and nameservers.

We apologize for all effects of the previous outages, however we are taking all the measures to ensure that the appropriate measures are taken to improve our level of service.
