Tranquility is back up!

Due to power issues that caused the server to experience problems earlier today, we did an emergency restart of the server to set things right. TQ went down at 14:50 UTC and came back up at 15:31 UTC.

However, it is again experiencing significant issues so another emergency reboot of TQ is necessary. We expect the downtime to last until 18:00 UTC.

We will update this thread as we have more information.

UPDATE 16:30 UTC: After investigating, our operations team has determined that the cause of the issue is hardware related. We must extend the emergency downtime by one and a half hour, to 18:00 UTC due to this.
UPDATE 18:00 UTC: Tranquility is up and is accepting connections!

Power? Well, I was thinking something else could be happening there in London, anyways, good luck with that.

A ghost from the past, I'm a bit paranoid, well... I'm playing EVE.Ugh

No, presumably it is to fix the node crashes where entire systems are never loaded, leaving people in the tunnel between systems forever (like me) or unable to load a grid.

Did the gerbil get off the wheel that powers the server?

There are few things as scary as being in low sec with 7 suspects as the node dies.

Two ships in space that could not make it in time and one in station with rotating circles... Hope my containers are still at the anomaly after login...
