Our service provider has announced unscheduled maintenance work on the power supply of our servers for the early morning hours of 23 Oct 2007.
When exactly we will have to shut down our servers and if we have the possibility to migrate to temporary server is still uncertain at this point in time. We will keep you informed.
For the expected downtime we will move the game to another server. This makes it necessary to move the database.
On monday evening (22. Oct 2007) the game will enter maintenance mode. After the migration, which will take a few minutes, the game will only be accessible via the following URLs:
http://en.game3.industrie-tycoon.de
http://en.speed3.industrie-tycoon.de (Speedgame)
After the power outage we will check the two game servers. If everything is alright the database will be migrated again. This will hopefully be finished by tuesday (23 Oct 2007) 7 a.m. Once the migration is done the game will be accessible via the usual addresses. We will notify you about this here in the forum.
The whole process will probably not cause any skipped worldupdates in the normal version, however the speedgame will most likely lose a WU for each migration.
Finished.
It should work correctly.
