Popular Post bamf Posted October 13, 2016 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Everyone- As some of you may have noticed, there appears to be a syncing issue for server 1 in particular. What you are likely not aware of though, is that server 1 was moved to a new data center recently as a test to see if our issues related to BE time outs was data center related instead of something in the game. After several days of testing, it appears that server 1 is much more stable than the other servers. Given the positive feedback and data we have collected from S1 during this testing period, we have decided to move all of our servers to this new data center host. We hope to have the servers provisioned for us today, and if all goes well we hope to launch completely in the new data center sometime tomorrow. The servers in the new data center have higher clock speeds and all have SSD storage. This is an upgrade of our hardware since the servers have been on the same hardware for a year now. There will be a short period of downtime while we migrate the full database to the new data center. The forums and game servers will be affected for that time period. So if you come to the website and it is offline, that should be us moving things over to the new data center. Thank you for your patience while we move the services to the new data center. Bamf UPDATE: The servers are in the new data center and are all online. Make sure you search for them as your recent/favorite server lists will not have the correct IPs now.

bamf Posted October 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Just now, Tiger said: I'm pretty sure it's ddos Actually, OVH has had a sustained DDoS attack (not necessarily directed at us, but at other OVH customers) so it likely is DDoS (just not in the way we thought). I was in a meeting with Radware yesterday, and someone has been hitting OVH with a DDoS attack utilizing a botnet of iOT devices. So @Tiger I think we very likely are affected by that.

Bamf Well looks like I was right when I said OVH was trash all along. Haych, GTA probably has a much more expensive hosting option than Asylum used. Their average Xeon servers are decent but their network is always DDOS'd, I experienced the same thing when I bought servers from them for Altis Life, Exile and KOTH. @bamf PLEASE put one of the servers (preferably #4) in Western USA! I'll even donate monthly if you do. Also check my PM to you Edited October 13, 2016 by Hanzo/Dirty Scrubz Haych likes this Link to comment

Will storage crate contents sync over? :/ Yes, once we get settled we can look at that. The only real issue here is cash itself. The things that are server 1 specific will be sourced from the DB at the new data center as we complete the migration. 7 minutes ago, Hanzo/Dirty Scrubz said: PLEASE put one of the servers (preferably #4) in Western USA! I'll even donate monthly if you do. Maybe we can look at doing that eventually. I rushed through the replication setup trying to minimize downtime across all the servers, and there is something that just isn't 100%. I'll set it up in a lab before we do this again (if we were going to put game servers in other regions for instance) and make sure that the replication works the way we want it to.

Emma Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 I would assume you guys pay a company to host the servers? They're not being run on systems you've built correct? Link to comment

Hell yeah, thanks for looking into that! This is some great news from Asylum, I'm looking forward to the migration and as I said, if we do end up with a Western US server, I'll donate monthly to keep it going. P.S. If you get time, please look at my PM. Link to comment
