In order to upgrade your Assisted Service Plan server to Fedora Core 7 your server will have to be reprovisioned. You have two methods you can take to have your server upgraded.

  1. You can start over. All your data will be lost. Our server administrators will reprovision your server for a normal setup fee. During this time your server will be unavailable for up to 12 hours.
  2. Or, our server administrators will perform a full backup, reprovision and restore for you for the normal hourly fee (estimated 10 hours). Your server will be unavailable for up to 72 hours.

To request an upgrade to Fedora Core 6 on your Assisted Service Plan server

  1. Log in to your Account Manager. In the My Products section, select Servers.

  4. A message will display notifying you that your server will be reprovisioned. Click OK to accept this.
