Rolling restarts commencing tonight - SLS1.22
Tonight, Tuesday 27 May, a pilot rollout of of Second Life server version 1.22 will go out to ~150 simulators, starting at 7:30PM SLT (US Pacific time). Assuming all goes well, the next rollout will be at 5AM Wednesday morning (for half the grid, over four hours), and then the remaining half at 5AM on Thursday, 29 May.
There's some work to reduce impact on the asset servers, mitigate teleport failures, as-yet-unspecified physics fixes, sound-playback-throttling, and quite importantly for some, a change to the IM-to-email subject line format. Recent server updates have not gone well, so we've got our fingers crossed for this one.
