Unplanned outage.

Apr 05, 2016 incarnate link
Our enterprise cloud experienced a node failure, and a bunch of our VMs had to be automatically migrated to another host, which effectively rebooted several critical game servers.

We expect to be back up in a few minutes, once we've done consistency checks on everything.

The game is now back online and stable (has been for a little bit).

Damn clouds, I spent years fixing those broken things. Biggest trick in IT history!

aside from the part where a server fails and you're back running in less than an hour.... Well played cloud...Well played....

If you guys maintained a calendar of unplanned outages, you could list these outages as they occur to give people more notice and make it easier to plan around them.
