Server Migration

Slightly annoying but our host has decided that they are upgrading their data centre. To accomplish this we have been informed that on the 28th of January around 10:30 PM (Game Time) they will be unplugging and migrating our server to a new rack location within the data centre.

The downtime is estimated up to 4 hours. This affects both the servers we operate so will effectively take CE off-line in all its formats and subdomains from 10:30 for the period.

The Discord chat WILL remain open for business and catching up on where we are at.

To ensure there are no issues we will be performing a server restart on the 20th at 11:00 Game Time, this will also affect the game servers and sub domain but should only be for around 10-15 minutes. We need to ensure that the shut down and restart process runs smoothly.

I will be sending out in game reminders for this and reminders to the reminders as we get closer :)

The Server 'RESTART' planned for this morning went ahead at 11:00 Game time. This was performed without issues. This was in preparation for the Shut down on the 28th when our server is being migrated to a New Data centre location.

Server down time today was approx 10 mins. The server at that time had been up for 645 days.
