EU Node-001 unreachable
EU Node-001
Resolved · July 29 at 5:27 AM (UTC) (in 14 hours)

Resolved: EU Node-001 is back online and all servers on it are running normally again.

We have verified the node is healthy, game traffic is flowing, and customer servers have returned. No customer data was lost. Server files, worlds and backups on the node are intact exactly as they were before the outage.

The cause was an administrative account issue on our side with one of our upstream infrastructure providers. It was not a hardware fault and not a security incident. It was avoidable, and it was our mistake.

We are putting checks in place so this particular failure cannot repeat.

If your server does not start, or anything looks wrong with your files, please open a ticket and we will sort it out for you directly.

Thank you for your patience through a long and frustrating outage. We are genuinely sorry.

Identified · July 29 at 1:23 AM (UTC) (4 hours earlier)

Identified: we have determined the cause of the EU Node-001 outage. It is an administrative account issue with one of our upstream infrastructure providers, not a fault with the hardware, the node, or any customer data. This was our responsibility, not a failure on the provider's side.

We are actively working to resolve it now. Once the account matter is settled we expect the node and all servers on it to come back up without further intervention.

Customer data is unaffected. Server files, worlds and backups on EU Node-001 are intact and have not been touched by this at any point.

US Node-001, US Node-002, the game panel, the client API and billing all remain fully operational.

We are sorry. This outage was avoidable and it is on us. We will post another update as soon as the node is back or if anything changes.

Investigating · July 28 at 8:09 PM (UTC) (5 hours earlier)

Update: EU Node-001 remains offline and unreachable. Our investigation is ongoing and we do not yet have a confirmed cause, so we are not going to give a restoration estimate we cannot stand behind. We would rather tell you what we actually know.

What we know: connectivity to the node was lost at approximately 10:30 UTC and has not returned. The node has not been reachable by any of our access paths since then.

Customer data is not affected. This is a connectivity and availability issue. Server files, worlds and backups on the affected node are intact, and nothing has been lost.

Unaffected and running normally: US Node-001, US Node-002, the game panel, the client API and the billing portal.

We are sorry for the disruption and for the length of this outage. We will post the next update as soon as we have either a confirmed cause or a restoration time.

Investigating · July 28 at 3:55 PM (UTC) (4 hours earlier)

Servers hosted on EU Node-001 are currently offline and cannot be reached. We identified the loss of connectivity as beginning at approximately 10:30 UTC today and we are actively investigating.

Services on US Node-001 and US Node-002, the game panel, the client API and billing are all unaffected and operating normally.

Customer data on the affected node is not impacted by this. We will post a further update as soon as we have more information.
