Unity restarting in a few minutes

[Luca Mazzasogni]

1. I said that the shard will be restarted in a few minutes. Once the restart procedure begins then it will take the usual 30 minutes to go online (as you should know).

2. I have already answered to that question twice in different threads, as soon as Unity is back online I will copy and past my answer here.

Luca, I think Sunuke was rather refering to why no message when the problems started. The problemsapperantly started 2-3 hrs ago. It would have been nice if you posted here as soon as you were aware of the problem, not just when you correct it(altho it is very nice to know you are correcting it).

So either you weren't aware of the problem 2-3 hrs ago, or you worked on it silently. It's the silent part we users do not like.

Exactly what i was refering too.

Atleast then we would have known they would have been working on this issue.

Just look at the time the first post was in the following treads:

I am sure`ll get the Event, GN would be stupid if they wouldn`t give us the Event, because one of the biggest strength of Horizons, are the AE-made Events and i heard the Fall harvest-Event was much fun. So if i GN wouldn`t give us the Event, hmmm they will miss a chance to keep people playing HZ, because there wasn`t any Event for such a long time.

ok thanks Luca
1) didn't know restarts take 30mins when played on lineage 2 restarts or maintenance of each server took 3-5mins so very different times depending on the game
2) will eagerly await the answer
3) I know its prolly too much to ask for, but any chance of hoards of lv60-80 ghost mobs attacking the citys tonight?

And how long does the restart procedure take, please Luca?

And no I am not taking the mickey, I do not know.

If your reply was for me Kaze, then look at what Luca wrote again.

He mentions that it takes 30 minsONCE the restart procedure is completed.

So how long can the restart procedure take??? a few seconds?? a few minutes?? a few hours?? a lifetime????

As Luca typed it it struck me that there is a period of time for this restart procedure then 30 mins on top of that.

How much time would that take 30 sec max


And we did?

Aren't you posting in a thread started by me about restarting Unity? [img]/Web//emoticons/emotion-42.gif[/img]

Here it is:

"...The "Halloween content" is part of a huge upgrade releasedthis week on the North American shards while we were still working on our consolidation.

Toget this upgrade this week we should have postponed the launch of Unity for another day, in the case that everything went fine. Furthermore it is not advisable to apply a big upgrade straight after the consolidation process as it is sometimes that, as you might have witnessed, could take a while to settle down.

Even once things are running fine the merger of three shards into one is something that take a few days of deep checking and analysis before we can consider it a success. The risk to mess something up applying immediately a new upgrade without having the time if some further fixes are needed for the consolidation is just a risk too big to take.

If something goes wrong then the rollback would mean to go back at the beginning of the consolidation process. In my opinion and in the opinion of the whole Horizons European Team this is too much of a risk to havea some pumpkins and a scarecrows on the shard.

At this very moment I can't tell you what will happen about this once the upgrade is applied unto Unity (target day next Tuesday, November 2nd)..."

We NEED an event Luca

Heya all,

By reading your comments on the server restart i am missing one very important thing:
We should be a little more aware of the effort and hard work the Dev's are putting
in this project, and not only complaining always if something needs a fix.
Remember all that at this time their are hard working instead of having a nicesunday with their familys....
On my part i'm very happyabout the changes the server merge brought to us all
and feel it's time to say "thank you" instead....
With regards,
Knud

Again, when the server restarts and isnt up longer then 3 hours, I get stuck in the
recieving character init thing... That happens a few times (yesterday 30x, 15x, 5x)
and for today 5x and still trying...
That has something to do with the restart and getting a while before the server gets stable or what?
mb I'd write support, but they should have enough to do..
anyone else experience the same problem?
