I'ts not this simple. You can test a small project with 5 people on it and still get unpredictable results at deploy. Those things do happen rather often. But you talk about giant project with probably hundreds of developers. This is completely different scale, which you can't probably even imagine. It's complex.

Thousands of things can go wrong and years old bug existing in the system may surface just because someone changed something related to something ...

Don't try to look smart, when you don't know basics man.

If you knew the SW business, as I do, you would be very surprised EVE is running so smooth most of the time.



These are very true statements, they do not however nullify the necessity and implementation of a rollback procedure.

Good luck getting this sorted. The stress levels in that server room must be pretty high.

Hey guys,

As you’re all aware, Tranquility is still offline after today’s scheduled daily downtime.

This is due to an issue with a code deployment today while patching for a few fixes in EVE Online. The issue caused the cluster to fail to start up correctly, and as such, Tranquility is currently unavailable for play for both EVE and DUST.

Our operations and development team are working on this issue as we speak, and we’re hoping to have Tranquility back online for you guys as soon as possible.

Right now, we don’t have an ETA for when the cluster will be back online and accepting connections, but we’ll keep you updated in this thread.

Cheers,

- F

UPDATES:

13:00 UTC - AFTER SEVERAL FAILED STARTUPS, WE ARE CURRENTLY INVESTIGATING A STARTUP ISSUE
13:30 UTC - INVESTIGATION IS STILL ONGOING - NO FURTHER ETA ON UPTIME FOR TRANQUILITY
13:37 UTC - STARTUP FAILED AGAIN - INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING
14:00 UTC - INVESTIGATION IS STILL ONGOING
14:30 UTC - WE ARE CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF REBOOTING AFTER FAULTFINDING AND CHANGES
15:00 UTC - FURTHER ATTEMPTS TO START UP HAVE FAILED - INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING
15:30 UTC - INVESTIGATION STILL ONGOING - NO ETA ON SERVER UPTIME


Did you check to make sure the computer was plugged in? Try wiggling the power cord it may be loose.

An old Indian was asked the name of his wife.
He replied, "Wife Name - Three Horse."
"That's an unusual name for your wife, Three Horse. What does it mean?"
"It's an old Indian name. Means Nag, Nag, Nag."
