[RESOLVED] Rolling Restarts Nightly until Thursday

[RESOLVED 03:58AM PST] Rolling restarts have been completed for tonights schedule.

[UPDATE 11:20PM PST - April 13th] Rolling restarts scheduled for tonight are now in progress.

[UPDATE 10:10pm PST - April 13th] Tonight’s rolling restarts are on schedule to start at 11pm.

We will be continuing our project to improve both the performance and maintainability of our network, by moving many of the servers that host Second Life’s regions onto a new network over the next few nights.

The restarts will take place Monday, April 6th - Thursday, April 9th, starting at 11pm, and running until approximately 4am.

This will require us to restart several hundred regions each night. Unfortunately, every time a region restarts it moves onto the first available hardware of the appropriate class, so we cannot predict which exact regions will be affected. However, there will be in-world warnings in the regions prior to the restarts, as usual.
