From the EQ2 Forums:
The Butcherblock and Crushbone servers will be brought offline on Thursday, April 9, 2015 at 3:30AM Pacific* for server migration and maintenance. These servers are estimated to be unavailable until approximately 2PM Pacific.
Keep an eye on the EverQuest II forums and social media for status updates and for news if additional downtime is needed.
I am on Butcherblock but am Euro time zone. Was wondering what the avg downtime actually has been for the other PvE servers?
Why not the 2 hour downtime of every other server?
10 hours seems a bit extended.
All servers have been having 10+ hours of scheduled downtime for this DB migration.
Thanks for the graphic! It brought a smile to my cynical face this am. I completely forgot about the database maintenance and logged in to receive the ‘server locked’ text.
Seriously, I should know better than to log on to EQ2 before coffee )
Thanks for the humor Feldon. You and a number of the regulars on the forums are some of the reasons I keep playing EQ2.
Cheers
Feldon, just… thank you for everything you do for the EQ2 community. Even if we don’t say much we do appreciate it.
