As part of the decommissioning of the Bothell facility we are migrating subnets off our core switch in Bothell, and onto our core switch in Seattle. We have moved several of these already, usually as the last machine leaves that subnet in Bothell. However over the next few nights we will migrate the remaining subnets over to Seattle. There should be nothing more than a momentary pause in connectivity as servers in those subnets find their new gateway.

The overall operational impact is close to zero, thanks to the magic of OSPF and iBGP, but we feel the need to share news of the event as it is a significant milestone in our move. We could be migrating our Verio circuit over to Seattle as soon as tomorrow night, leaving literally no more than cleanup and a couple of stragglers [You know who you are... Cliff & The Steves! =) ] as all that stands in the way of total shutdown of d.f Bothell.

It has been a long hard move, but like hitting the 24 mile mark on a marathon, we know it is almost over. Thanks for your patience through all of this.
