Description
Deathray was a direct result of Prodigy needing replacing, so the SPC graciously funded a new server.
Deathray was one of our first servers to be upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04. It was used during the migration to host the services that would usually run on Morpheus.
Services
Deathray was the primary services machine until it was replaced by morpheus in March 2009. Work is currently underway to re-install Deathray as the secondary services machine. Deathray was instated as secondary services from 2009 until late 2015.
Deathray was replaced by Metharme during the service migration see:Downtime at the start of 2015. Deathray stepped into the breach as secondary services for a week while migrations took place.
Deathray was finally decommissioned by koffee 06/11/2015 at 17:14:47
