Topic: Server Down?

Can't connect even though the server status shows as online. Is it just me or have I missed an announcement somewhere?

Re: Server Down?

might be due to the fact the server was laging like hell b4... loged on for 3 mins & logged off again was so bad.

Re: Server Down?

Today's downtime was due to a server hardware issue, apologies to everyone. We will compensate the lost gametime during our next scheduled downtime.

We're up and running again btw smile

DAILY down time is needed.

Re: Server Down?

not that i also think that a regular maintenance intervall would be necessary for other things too (like hotfixes, database updates, etc... ), i wonder how a server restart every day would help when a physical component of the server gives up.

i didn't know that a restart helps with a broken HD drive.

There are many preventative measures that you can take advantage of during daily scheduled maintenance, HDD scans and checks should be on the list. This could have been prevented, daily down time doesn't mean just rebooting the servers it means maintaining them and assessing the hardware and software on them.

There are many IT solutions available to maintain and service servers, but many of these tools are only useable if you take the server off line for periods of time. some of them can be done live. IF this was a bad HDD then it could have been hot swapped with the proper equipment and not taken the entire game server down.

there are soo many ways that the game servers could be running much more efficiently but they will not if these solutions are not taken advantage of.

Re: Server Down?

thats true.

there are also solutions to tell your customers that you are aware that your server is currently having issues and that your are working on it, that don't hinder you at repairing your server at the same time.

fuuu
