Its not just a server...its a MEGASERVER!
Takes forever for all those SATA drives to spin up.

Because it isn't ONE server.
It's a collection of many many many servers that have to be brought up in a specific sequence most-likely.
I work with similar setups designed for processing scientific research. It can be a very delicate operation, and if it isn't done properly, you're starting over.

What is cool about this picture is that I am pretty sure that ZOS uses the same, or similar, server hardware for the megaservers. It has been a while since we saw any pictures, though.XBox EU/NA:@ElsonsoJannus

Just a heads up that a fix might be a while, though it's a little too soon to say for sure. We'll keep you up to date as best as we can.
Are you guys going to try blaming a DDOS attack again?
Guarantee you these morons won't take ownership, they'll blame something like a DDOS. The sad truth is that this is the culmination of weeks of server issues, people getting d/c'd and add on the release of content without fixing prior issues first. They just don't have the skills to resolve these problems before they have global impact.
You know, you should really try a low sodium diet bro. Much healthier way to live.

Actually I work on about 99% Linux servers. And yes, it can still take that long.
As I said, we're not talking about single servers, but a huge cluster of servers that inter-operate in several ways.
If the whole farm has go down, it's a pretty big undertaking to get it back up, functional, and then you've still got to make sure it's entirely functional before allowing users back on.
And, just so ya know, operational clusters that use Windows typically stage updates, so that doesn't happen. By taking down individual boxes, running updates, and then returning them to the pool. This method results in zero downtime. If they are running Windows you can bet they are doing this all of the time to prevent just that.
AND, any large organization controls their own update server(s), and they are aware of exactly when this is happening unlike home users who pay it no attention and get blindsided.3 -
