Linode supports free data center replacement. The Linode data center used by this site (www.vpsgo.com) encountered a failure a few days ago, and it is necessary to temporarily migrate the VPS instance to another data center. This article records the Linode migration data Central points of note and detailed migration tutorial.

1. Points to note when migrating Linode data center

When using Linode to replace the data center (Linode Migrate) function, we need to pay attention to:

• The VPS will be assigned new IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, which will be accessible once your migration is complete.
• Any existing Linode backup service backups will not be migrated. Once your migration is complete, your backups will restart according to your existing schedule.
• Any DNS records (including reverse DNS) need to be updated. You can use a DNS manager or configure your Linode's reverse DNS (rDNS).
• If the target zone does not support VLANs, any additional VLANs will be inaccessible. Check VLAN zone compatibility.
• Your Linode will be powered off.
• Block storage cannot be migrated to other regions.
• When this migration begins, we estimate it will take approximately 9 hours to complete.

So Linode migration is very time-consuming. Linode will give a rough estimate of the time. You can see that this site actually takes 9 hours to complete the migration, and the VPS is shut down during the migration process. , that is, the VPS cannot be accessed during the migration.
