You can point them to this lovely thread, or this one Network Maintenance or our Status Grid (this is a great resource for all new people to have!) and even to our Twitter and Facebook page as well. All great places to find out what is going on with Second Life. We shall pass on the news of this glorious thread and the honored grid status website. (Right, everybody? We're gonna be helpful while we watch our cat videos, right?) I guess I'll ask the obvious question. I'm sure you don't know when things will be back up. But can you give a rough idea? Are talking about an hour or two? Or, more realistically, tomorrow? Or longer? Or just no idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

animats Posted May 14, 2019 Author Share Posted May 14, 2019 The beta grid is up, but when I upload a .DAE file for an animesh object that worked yesterday, it won't animate. Yesterday's upload animates just fine. But maybe I'm doing something wrong. Message "Asset server didn't return in a timely fashion. Object returned to sim" in Animesh1 on beta grid. Probably not a good time to be doing animesh work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm back! So logins are enabled now? Or did you disable them again right before I got back! xP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best I can tell you right now, is we have a lot of people working hard on getting it resolved, and that we want everyone back in Second Life as quickly as possible. Except @CrystalFragments we are tormenting them as part of the master plan. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, hypothetically . . . if a snow leopard were sitting on the servers and started shedding heavily because, you know, it's a move to a far warmer climate . . . would the shedding into the servers have this effect?

Asking for a friend. I would be more concerned that there was a snow leopard sitting on the servers above anything else that might be going on. Also, do I get to keep the snow leopard as a pet if I convince it to move off of the servers? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I will not be your pet. . . Uhhhh . . . I mean my friend won't be your pet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, we're very carefully lining our ducks back up in a row - and will enable logins again as soon as it's prudent. We're not actually that crazy about taking down the grid, but we had to bang on some things, and are terribly sorry! Do you need a bigger hammer? I have a sledgehammer you can borrow if needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, we know there has been a lot of work going on behind the scenes related to moving into the cloud. I am not a tech wizard, but that sounds to me like some pretty big work that is likely to involve some downtime. And maybe what's happening now is part of that?

The announced maintenance period was 4 days, the 13-16 (13, 14, 15, 16). That doesn't mean this outage will last all four days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do forest rangers go to "get away from it all"? Why do they report power outages on TV? If a book about failures doesn't sell, is it a success? But for the workinds under our hood, I am afraid I am not the best person to speak about that, and the ones that are, are knee deep under the hood right now. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gwenfrewy Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Can I ask if we should try logging in constantly or is that a heavy burden on the servers? I can imagine, and that may be why the login attempts are being disabled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
