All issues which began on the 12th of November 2017 have been resolved.

The affected services are back online. The reason for this outage was a physical defect of an HDD as well as a simultaneous failure of an SSD in our server HV01.

For the technical folks this is what the servers sata controller threw into the kernel log:

this error has been thrown over and over again fatally crashing the controller in the end. We have resolved the issue with the help of Hetzner’s technicians which did replace the affected disks within a few hours. Great support as always!

Hallo @Novus Spieler,
es ist mal wieder Zeit für einen Server reset!
Dieses Mal wird aber nur noch ein Server für euch zur Verfügung stehen da auf keinem der beiden Server auch nur die Hälfte der angedachten Spieler spielen. Am Freitag dem 28.04 wird gegen Mittag ein Server reseted und der andere wird gelöscht. Es wird dementsprechend ein Modpack update geben!
Ich bemühe mich momentan euch die Maps der beiden Server zum Download bereitzustellen. Ich kann aber nichts versprechen, da die beiden Maps im Client sehr wahrscheinlich nicht Spielbar sind!

@Bent Thank You

Hallo UWM ,
bitte lasst den Alpha server online. Ich spiele da sehr oft und sehe auch of Leute. ich will nicht schon wieder komplett neu anfangen.

Steelminer

Lol dont think anyone was really concerned, Since only like 4 people at most play on it

Due to a technical fault in one of our root servers, a large part of our services went down, including the forums, our website as well as some of our Minecraft servers (Modern Millenaire, Novus and Pure Vanilla).

We resolved the issue and apologize for the inconvenience.

Yesterday (12.01.2017) we had a downtime of our forums from around 18:00 (11.01.2017) till 12:00 (12.01.2017) CET. Thanks to some of our members we have been noticed and got the forums back up.

We are actively investigating in the cause of these downtimes as it has happened multiple times in the past few months. For this we are in contact with the developers of the forums software.

Aside from that we hope you enjoy your stay and are excited for the upcoming updates / modpacks in the next few months!

This graph shows the downtime:

@tjwmagic said in Merry Christmas!:

@Bent you said we might be unresponsive for the next 48 hours. I say no! I say we have a very Merry update coming your way to a Novus near you! @Novus

:clap:

Awesome!

“Nerver Settle” - @J4kee please don’t bug me about citing One Plus here ;)

Novus:
Osmium gibts im Biom “greater Hills” heisst es glaube ich. Und eventuell noch in 1 oder 2 anderen Biomen. Dort aber dann massig. In anderen Biomen hingegen 0.

@MrGoodkat,

danke ür deine Anmerkung, wir werden dies in unserem Team besprechen und uns so schnell wie möglich zurück melden.

Due to a technical failure the forum has been rolled back by about 48 hours.

We sincerely apologise for this and are working on a solution to avoid this in the future.

4-5 times now XD
and every time at least a 15min rollback

I was just thinking that. @Bent @PixL0r

Ach mist ;)
Ich versuchs in Deutsch.
Der Castor Server startet in der Zeit in der ich Spiele gefühlt alle 30-60minuten neu. Nicht weil der Server den Automatismus hat das zu tun sondern weil er crasht.

Draconis läuft viel stabiler, klar weniger user und Fortschritt nicht so weit etc. kann alles eine Rolle spielen. Aber es gibt auch unterschiedliche Configs und das merkt man z.B. daran das meine Freunde von Castor auf Castor nicht in meine Chests schauen können. Meine Freunde in Draconis aber in meine Chests auf Draconis schauen können. Ich denke der Server hat andere Einstellungen die eventuell besser sind.

Besteht eventuell die Möglichkeit die Draconis Einstellungen nach auch auf Castor anzupassen?
Kann natürlich auch ein Fehler sein das jetzt wieder lauffähige System anzufassen ;) aber ich denke das macht ihr so oder so ;)

Thanks for the info, and good luck with what you are studying ^^
It´s always hard (sometimes less) isn´t it ?

Anyways, good luck and maybe cya later :)

Regards,
Philipp
