We will be upgrading mysql on our server Cyclone tonight from 4.x to 5.x.
5.x is reported to be very compatible with cPanel 11 and should be a painless migration. Ultimately we will be migrating all servers as 4.x is phased out so we will start with Cyclone tonight to see how this goes.
There will likely be a short mysql outage as part of the upgrade process. If there are any changes, I will post it here.
Thanks!
Cyclone has been upgraded. If you have any concerns, please post them here or open a ticket.
Thanks!
Any sort of timetable on the upgrades for the rest of the servers?

I think I'll give it a day or two to see if anything weird comes up with Cyclone. As far as I know right now, the move appeared painless so let's hope no problems arose for anyone that would slow us down.
Well, as long as everyones scripts are up to date (as they should be!) then I'm sure by now the majority of high quality scripts out there support v5.
Now if you you are running Joe Schmoe's Cart Skript you may be in trouble. :P

What if I upgraded to v1.3?
Maybe...
I am going to try to resume the migration for our remaining servers tonight or tomorrow night. I will update this thread as we proceed.
OK, thanks for the heads up. :)
We're going to start with Hurricane shortly tonight.
Ok, Hurricane is done. Please check your sites and report any issues.
We will start with Firestorm shortly tonight.
Firestorm is also now completed. Please check your sites and report any issues.
We will convert Blizzard next tonight.
Blizzard is now complete. Please check your sites and report any issues.
We'll stop there tonight and wrap up the remaining servers tomorrow if all goes well.
Thanks
OK, I see you said Hurricane was converted buy my cPanel still says 4.1.
Well, phpMyAdmin says 5.0 so nevermind.

It's definitely upgraded to 5.x but I see what you're talking about in your cpanel. WHM even shows the right version. It may "refresh" itself overnight.
Ah I see. OK, thanks.

Doesn't look like it's changed yet. I'll look into that today.
We're resuming the mysql conversions now.
We're targeting Thunderstorm now.
Stay tuned for updates.

This should be fixed.
Update: Thunderstorm ran into some issues and is presently offline. It looks like the memory is bad. I just got off the phone with the datacenter and they're taking it down now to swap out the memory.
I will create a new forum post for this issue so it can be tracked separately from this "mysql thread."
The memory in Thunderstorm failed testing last night and was replaced. Further details are in this thread (http://www.charlottezweb.com/forums/index.php?topic=821.0).
After bringing the server back up, MySQL was upgraded successfully.
We have two servers remaining and I will have them done over the weekend.
We're resuming the mysql conversions now.
We'll be starting Maelstrom shortly.
Stay tuned for updates.
Maelstrom has been updated.
Our last server is Thunder and will be started shortly.
Stay tuned for updates.
Thunder is done. Please check your sites for any issues.
This concludes the mysql 5.x conversion.
Thanks
