The TEST1 and TEST2 databases have been re-created in the new Test Centre. We are currently awaiting new IP addresses from our hosting partner. Once those are known, we will repoint the DNS to the new servers.

The databases were copied over on 30th June, so data uploaded in the meantime will be lost.

The DNS change will take up to 24 hours to propogate though, in reality, it is usually complete within a couple of hours. To avoid issues on the day of change-over, I recommend you use the IP addresses of the existing TEST platforms:

80.168.33.5  test1.metapack.com (NO LONGER WORKING)
80.168.33.10 test2.metapack.com

If your topology requires that you use a name, then I recomend you alter your hosts file with the above information.

The old servers will remain available for a few days, but you are encouraged to move to the new systems as soon as they become available. A notice will be posted saying when the old systems will be mothballed.

NB. The old instance of DM on test1.metapack.com (80.168.33.5) has completely died. It is unusable and will not be resurrected.
