Hi all,

as announced often enough, I will proceed with the move of the VMs
hosted at my server.

Currently I am pre-syncing all virtual disks to the second storage unit.
Tomorrow I will gradually shut down all VMs, do respective final syncs,
and set up the host from scratch. When the host is ready again, I will
sequentially import the VMs again. As written earlier, PMBS and the
workers are VMs with less priority, so I will attend to them last. 

During the transition I will not be able to read or send mails, so it
might be possible, that - when something goes horribly wrong - I will
not be able to communicate until I have at least my mail system working
again, so please be warned.

I hope to finalize the move over the course of the weekend.

Tomorrow I will give a short warning before I start.


Greetings,
Stefan
