MoiraKathleen Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I have not ever seen that message before, nor remember hearing anyone else mention it. Did you have any support cases open for anything that might have affected you account state or status? Did you receive any emails from LL recently about your account?

MoiraKathleen Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Hmmm.... I don't know then. Perhaps someone else will come along who has some knowledge about that message. This is a residents forum, so it would just be information others might have that have seen that message before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolig Loon Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Since you could log in after a short while, it sounds like it really was minor maintenance and it's all done. Unless you want to exercise your tinfoil hat, there's probably not much reason to worry about it. I'm sure that if it were something serious, they would let you know. They probably just unplugged the account server while fumigating to get the lice out of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinos Field Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) Nobody really knows. There was this idea of it meaning that they're investigating your account (for copybotted items or such) but that's probably not the case. It's safest to just assume that it's some kind of routine reboot of the account servers, I think. But as usual, I wish the Lindens were a little more talkative about these ancient mysteries.

We're in the process of upgrading some of our inventory database servers, which means moving each users inventory data from an older server to a newer one. We can of course only do that when the user is not logged in, and before we start the copy we lock the account to prevent them logging in while the move is in progress. You just happened to try to log in while your data was being moved. The lock lasts for 6 minutes, so if you happen to get that message go make a sandwich or your favorite hot beverage and you should be able to log in when you're done. If you happen to get that message separated by more than 6 minutes, file a ticket with support and we'll look into it promptly. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
