OSG is back on line!
It's running on a new database, the migration was successful.
It also resumed the ingestion of assets of the old asset server.

P.S.: I modded the image a bit to make it less scary xD

Guys, I'll freeze the comments on this post to let it sink in the past and free the slot for others, I feel bad to have fun on a post about a closed issue and rob the spot light in the main timeline.
Thank you so very much for your comments and interest, it was good weekend thanks to you,

Well if you read the post this weekend the grid was off line to switch databases, the reason for that is to use something more resilient on high demand (weekends), so it won't crash again.
Please read the posts on this thread, then sass me all what you want, I will take it with a smile, I promise.

it was said the weekend before the last weekend too. Are you the founder of osgrid or why do you paint all they do in nice colors?

Hum no, I never said anything like that.
I'm a regular user that volunteered to be a liason between devs and the user-base in cases of emergency because they're busy trying to get the servers on line so they can't communicate the changes. Seeing that communication is key I offered to do it myself.
Also I worked with devs most of my life IRL, so I know how it is behind the curtains. I'm not overly optimistic either but I understand the intention behind the changes and no one in it's right mind will do modifications to worsen the user experience. That's just common sense.
I get you're grumpy but if you try and think a bit you'll understand.

That's too bad, out of kindness, I open my sim to everyone to dance. I know how bad you must feel, especially since this happens every weekend, and that's when many of you are off work to enjoy the grid. :( Well you are welcome to signup for an account elsewhere and hyperjump anywhere, many people are very friendly and welcoming.

Usual week-end on osgrid.
That's why i'm happy having several joke-points so to say. ;)
Also i learned over years not to place all my hopes and dream on a single region/grid. Can be to frustrating.
Then see the good side anyway, you will have more time for your kids and walk your dog.

Well, not really, they are doing a mega shutdown to fix the routine weekend crash heh.
That being said, put all your eggs in the same basket is never a good idea, you're very right! In my case in particular any other basket gave me more grief than advantages so instead I just save very regular OARs and IARs lol

The major trouble with having same-identity alts elsewhere is keeping them in sync. You have to pass essential parts of your inventory back and forth, or if something is no-copy or even no-transfer, you have to get it once per avatar. If you aren't one of those guys who always wear the same, you have to create your outfits several times over. And you have separate friends lists, so all your avatars have to befriend the same people.
It's also kind of ironic that grid outages inspire people to create alts on different grids and at the same time keep them from actually doing it. They'd have to create their alt from scratch, for as long as their home grid is down, they can't access their main avatars and give their alts things from their inventory such as the shape.
Might be the reason why many people have alts that look vastly different from one another while having the same name.

Update:
As you know too well we're getting a crash every single weekend for the last month. This is due the database they're using is not playing well with clusters. So it's needed to do a database change so this kind of outages stops to happen.
Well today is the day. If you're frustrated on this crashes I can't express the degree of frustration that's going on behind the curtain. The offline situation will extend until Monday (providing everything goes ok) so they will change databases. It's a necessary step to stop this weekend crashes.
I'll post more news as I get them.
