YUL region deprecation

I received an email overnight about the YUL region being deprecated and that we need to move our apps to another region.

I’m curious - what happens if I don’t? The app in question is a CI build for a side project. I don’t remember ever picking a region for it, and it’s ended up in YUL somehow. I don’t especially care where it’s deployed, so if the deprecation will automatically move the machine to another region then that’s fine by me.

However, I’ve also just added primary_region = "lhr" to the fly.toml file for the app and redeployed it, and it’s not done anything. I’m not sure exactly what the process would be to move the machines apart from that if I needed to do so?

Cheers

you can move your machines using fly scale:

~ $ fly scale count <ct> --region lhr
~ $ fly scale count 0 --region yul

(replace <ct> by how many machines you run in your app)

we will reach out again later to people still running machines in the region once we have a decommission plan.

Well - that was remarkably easy. Thank you :slight_smile:
