Linode JP Tokyo1 datacenter will finally come to an end and is expected to be officially closed on 2019.06.08

Yesterday, I received an email from Linode, informing me that the Tokyo1 datacenter, which has been delayed for a long time, will finally be closed. I have been talking about migrating to Tokyo2 before, but there has been no forced migration. I originally thought about whether it would become a family heirloom, especially The machines in the Tokyo1 datacenter were previously upgraded from Xen to KVM (Linode JP Tokyo1 upgrade KVM/speed/network, etc. evaluation), but now it seems that it cannot escape its fate after all. Linode is expected to migrate all Tokyo1 VPS to Tokyo2 on June 8, 2019. At that time, the Tokyo1 datacenter will be officially closed. Let’s take a look at the email.

1. Linode email original text

The original text of the email is as follows:

Hello,

We hope you're doing well! We are reaching out to inform you that on June 8th, 2019, we will begin migrating Linodes from our Tokyo 1 data center to our Tokyo 2 data center. Here's a summary of how this will affect you:

– Your IPs will change and you can view your new IPs from the Remote Access tab of your Linode’s Dashboard within the Classic Manager[1]. – Your migration dates and times are available in the Classic Manager and they cannot be delayed. You can start your migration early by clicking on the “Enter the Migration Queue NOW” button on the Linode’s Dashboard. – Your existing Backups will be deleted. New Backups will be taken in Tokyo 2. – Your Linode(s) will experience downtime of 5-10 minutes per GB of data. – Your Linode(s) will not be upgraded as part of this migration. You are free to upgrade your Linode(s) once they have migrated to our Tokyo 2 data center.

We are migrating Linodes out of our Tokyo 1 data center in advance of the data center being decommissioned. To help ease this transition, we've applied a credit to your account equal to one month of service for each of your Tokyo 1 Linodes. We strongly recommend you review our Tokyo 2 Migration doc[2] to help you prepare for this transition.

When your Linode(s) migrates, it will be cleanly shut down and migrated to our Tokyo 2 data center. If you initiated the migration manually, your Linode(s) will be returned to its previous state (running or powered off ). You can monitor your position in the migration queue from your Linode's Dashboard.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards, Linode
