Migrations will be carried out outside of peak hours to minimize disruption.

Brief Downtime

Your server will be briefly powered down while files are moved

Automatic Restart

Once moved, your server will automatically be started back up

Minimal Impact

Uptime impact is expected to be very minimal, though it may vary slightly depending on server size

No Changes Required

Your server's IP address will not change during the standard migration process.

Ports


All port assignments remain identical.

Domains


Any custom domains, SRV records, or subdomains you've configured will continue to work without any changes needed.

Server Data


All your server data, configurations, user permissions, backups, and databases are preserved exactly as they are.

Rollout Timeline

When Is This Happening?

A significant portion of Premium nodes have already been upgraded, with remaining locations continuing to be processed on a rolling basis as hardware becomes available.

Tracking Progress


You can follow progress for each location in the upgrade-progress channel, and we'll continue to share updates as the rollout completes.

Check Your Server Status


You can see if your server has already been upgraded onto the new hardware in the Settings page under "New Hardware".

Early Migration

Can I Request My Server Is Moved Early?
