    Restarting equipment, fixing any hardware issues, database issues etc. Unless they list an incremental patch with it, it's not any changes to the game itself.

    Old hamster died. Had to a get new.

    While they were at it, they replaced the hamster wheel and cleaned all the poop from the cage.

    wtf that hamster wheel was FINE! just a little oil on the axle was all it needed, and they probably replaced it with some subpar plasticized garbage...

    It's getting derailed because it's been answered.

    They just reboot the servers.

    "Hamster" that should be your answer.

    Maintenance for the week of July 30:
    · [COMPLETE] North American megaservers for maintenance – August 1, 2:00AM EDT (6:00 UTC)
    · [COMPLETE] European megaservers for maintenance – August 1, 2:00AM EDT (6:00 UTC)
    · [COMPLETE] ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – August 1, 2:00AM EDT (6:00 UTC)

    Source?? Common sense. When EVERYTHING goes down in the same maintenance window, that's a good chance the maintenance they're doing has to do with the datacenter the servers are in.

    EU and NA servers are in different data centers, and EU (Frankfurt) data center already had maintenance last week. Seems a bit unlikely that they would have another so soon, and coordinate it with an entirely different data center in the US.

    Have a feeling this was ZOS stuff, not data center stuff.

    Or maybe there is a dependency between EU and NA. Perhaps all the authentication and account stuff goes through NA even if you play the game on the EU server.

    Great, thanks for confirming that the people stating it was Datacenters as a fact don't actually know it for a fact.

    there's a supercool guy (from what i hear) from the German segment called Kai-something-or-other (no disrespect intended) who seems to do very well at informing the playerbase of current goings-on. i heard someone relate that he described it as a datacenter thing.

    there is further info somewhere on this subforum from tonight, but i don't remember which thread to look in.

    Guten Morgen,

    es stehen weitere Arbeiten am EU- und diesmal auch am NA-Datencenter an. Die Wartung dürfte im zeitlichen Umfang mit der in der letzten Woche vergleichbar sein - sprich bis weit in den Nachmittag dauern.
    Good morning,

    there will be further work on the EU and this time also on the NA data center. Maintenance is likely to be comparable in terms of time with that in the last week - that is, to last well into the afternoon.

    @swippy Perfect - thanks so much!

    @Armatesz I managed to find it. https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/de/discussion/comment/5347354#Comment_5347354

    Rough Google translate tells me @ZOS_KaiSchober says "Further work is pending at the EU and this time also at the NA data center. Maintenance is likely to be comparable in terms of time with that in the last week - that is, to last well into the afternoon."

    Also speaks to what @adriant1978 said above, though apparently it WAS a second EU center maintenance coordinated with NA.

    (Thanks for your help @PlagueSD ;))
