On Wednesday, September 5th, the following UO shards will have an extended maintenance window:
  • Chesapeake
  • Atlantic
  • Catskills
  • Siege Perilous
  • Legends
  • Great Lakes
  • Lake Superior
We expect the maintenance window on this day to last approximately six hours, beginning at the normal maintenance time. Thanks for your patience!

We wondered that too Ally, why such a long downtime ... *enjoys mysteries*

Re: Extended Downtime Next Week

Found an explanation on this thread on UO U.Hall

It's not that exciting - we're moving the physical boxes to a new colo. It takes a while to get all those little hamsters on leashes

Re: Extended Downtime Next Week

colocation
Incase servers crash on one end they are still up on another.

At least thats I have always used the word.

This way it allowes for a faster sever recovery.

Re: Extended Downtime Next Week

Not quite, colocation means they host their hardware in a data centre, instead of renting servers, they colocate their own there.
