Website move to another server - Tonight [completed]

Tonight some time I will be moving the site to another server. I figure 11:30pm-12:00am ET or so. It should be fairly seamless other than a couple minute blip when the move is finalized. There is a slight possibility of a lost post if someone happens to post right between the transition, but the odds are probably slim given the traffic.

This move is mostly just as part of service consolidation as it is currently hosted on a shared hosting package.

Moving time further. It looks like my host does not allow outgoing connections to my server's SSH port so I cannot transfer directly.

Final transfer step should happen in about 15 minutes. Expect a possible brief outage.

Just realized now I never changed the IP for the blank record (uovalor.com as opposed to www.uovalor.com) so I just did it now. Hopefully this did not affect anyone.

Today is the first day since the move that I could access the website.
