Maintenance/Update - Breaking News

[Luca Mazzasogni]

2:30AM - 8:00AM = The weekly maintenance processes have been completed successfully along with the first of the three steps of the update process. We still cannot give you any ETA for Unity but we should be approximately at 40% of the work done.

11:50AM = The second step of the update is done, we're now roughly at 70% of the whole process.

I'm really impressed by the flow of information during the last days/weeks.

Thanks for the update Luca [:)]

[Ishar Xhaan]

I always complain for the lack of info, this time I must admit that GN seems to do a good work PLUS we are informed of what is going on :)

[HAG]

Yes Luca (and team of GN), you are really doing a great job lately. [Y]

I know you always could, only the "war behind the scenes" with tulga kept you from doing so.

[snickel]

Great going [Y] and thanx for keeping us informed.

Will there be a list of the updates somewhen during the day? I'm just bursting with curiosity...

either that or... (snickel getting psychic for a moment) i see.... i see....

upgrade up to 98%, and puffff -- nothing going -- the system stops. An eerie quiet descends. You could hear a mithril sewing needle fall... and then reaction sets in. Some people run around totally disoriented -- others do the obvious thing: Search for the strongest grappa available to give to Luca to give him strength to tell us that everything is going haywire and nobody knows why...

[Neptune]

Any ETA Luca?

Updates = downtime
No updates = no downtime

We still prefer the first option.

Server is currently restarting, it could take between 60 and 90 minutes.
