Patch day. 11:00 - 12:00 EVE time. It'll probably run over but not by a lot. Oh we of little faith! Edit - expansion* day, not patch day! But that depends on how you perceive CCP's bug-fixing timeline. Actual was 11:00 - 12:20 EVE time. Pretty good I thought. Now, my initial goal was to deploy in 24 minutes. The deployment of Trinity in 2007 was scheduled for 24 hours, actual was closer to 22 hours, then boot.ini happened Would have been symbolic 6 years later to schedule the deployment for 24 minutes and deploy in 22. But then as we looked at the DB updates we had to add 25 minutes. Finally the teams asked for 5 minute VIP time for verification. A total of 54 minutes and we scheduled 55. During the deployment we encountered issues with the CDN we use and it took 25 minutes to resolve that with the technicians. A grand total of 80 minutes. Still faaaar away from 22-24 hours Since the summer of 2011 we have gotten much better at deploying expansions. Since then expansion deployments have taken: Crucible: 470 minutes = 7.83 hours Inferno: 250 minutes = 4.17 hours Retribution: 200 minutes = 3.33 hours Odyssey: 340 minutes = 5.67 hours Rubicon: 80 minutes = 1.33 hours Tyrannis, on 26 May 2010, was the last one to take more than 1,000 minutes. Red Moon Rising on 16 December 2005 was the longest deployment, at 1,440 minutes or 24 hours. Erlendur S. Thorsteinsson \| Development Director \| EVE Online // CCP Games \| @erlendur


CCP Explorer C C P C C P Alliance 1848	Posted - 2013.11.20 09:45:00 - [187] - Quote We have also been working on reducing the actual usage of the daily 30 minute scheduled downtime. If you look at this graph that shows the daily downtimes from July through end of October this year then we were using between 15 and 20 minutes daily even when there were no deployments. We have reduced that to 8 to 10 minutes, and with the new Cluster Load Balancer (devblog from CCP Prism X pending) then the cluster is taking 2 minutes less starting up so I'm hoping to reduce the target for non-deployment downtimes to 6-8 minutes. Will we be able to formally reduce the scheduled downtime from the current 30 minutes? I hope so, but I'm not committing to that right now. Erlendur S.

Zions Child Deep Core Mining Inc. Caldari State 529	Posted - 2013.11.20 09:59:00 - [188] - Quote You guys are fantastic, and it really is amazing that you deployed a content update (large or not, there were a large variety of changes) in 80 minutes. All that being said, plans never survive contact with the real world, so we all expected it to take longer than 60 minutes. I really just wanted that free beer at Fanfest. Also looking forward to the day when EVE can be run 24/7 :D

Lair Osen 71	Posted - 2013.11.20 11:04:00 - [190] - Quote Well until then, any chance of ever making downtime only every second day?

CCP Prism X C C P C C P Alliance 1363	Posted - 2013.11.20 11:19:00 - [191] - Quote We probably could do that by now, but that means that we only reshuffle systems between nodes, based on newly learned load behaviour, every two days. I don't think anybody would be happy about having to endure extreme lag in recently popular mission running systems, for example, for up to 48 hours. This could of course happen if the load of different subsystems was adjusted while the server was live and the cluster capable of reacting to these changes with minimal impact for our customers. @CCP_PrismX EVE Database Developer and Expert Ranter Member of a Different Team, every day.

IIRC, only drops 1 ping at the moment of switchover and therefore keeps all the client sessions happy.

By the way Prism our secert is safe and falcon will never know. Just so I can make better notes was that Vodka? Bren? or Jager you enjoy with your red bull. The delay was perfect o7. Falcon 27 beers person is awsome "Seems like I owe 27 beers to the following people at FanFest".

There were many parts to this; moving downtime database jobs to run online, reducing all testing to only be server-side deployment verification, improving deployment tools, processes and scheduling, improving server shutdown and startup.
