Planned downtime: Harddrive replacement (again)

[Kaoru]

im ready to get back on man... it feels like eternity. My GF is complaining that im spending too much time with her now O.O

Regarding things in-game like event such as chicks hatching from eggs or curios "learning", will people be able to log on and have such things done, seeing of how it was still in real time, but no one was in-game?

Or is it like a time-freeze regarding the hard drive, making the whole game just kind of stop? :?:

Time does not pass while the server is down.

Thank you, Mr. Knight.

It's at 12% now, saying there are about 600 minutes left.

Thanks for the updates .We will be patiently awaiting game time ,gl

Also, if it was possible, could you have multiple server, maybe different hard drive locations(?), to prevent the crashing or injuring of H&H, the World, or the server? It, to me, seems like a possible idea, but I'm just wondering.

Edit: Loft any update on time? ^_^

Edit: If anything, I might actually imagine that the disk being down and therefore turning off RAID might have made the I/O situation better in itself. I have been suspecting the swraid to be partly responsible for some time.

however we are rebuilding raid array. is there sth we can do to improve the i/o performance without turning RAID off?

and as someone mentioned, if a mirror server would keep us playing while sth crashed again, I believe we players are quite willing to donate the maintainance
