I'll be checking the logs for this event. Any additional information will be helpful.

I'll be looking into the logs for this individual. Any additional information will be helpful.

Glad to hear you figured out your problem Lyncher. Steam updated ArmA 2/OA tonight, so chances are it isn't a hardware issue. :) I updated the server to the official version of 1.62 - No beta is required for now until a new one is released. This means you can join with the stock steam client until a version is released that is > 95248.

US 10 is down for about 15 minutes. The game crashed and I want to see if I can salvage logs. It will be back up at 9pm Central Time (which was its normal reboot window anyways).

Last night's maintenance involved getting an SSD. The servers were just switched over to it on their respective reboots for increased performance. Enjoy! Edit: Fixed US 10, forgot to copy the mission.

DragonFury2020, I suggest giving a more detailed description of your error (what it says verbatim) and your method of installing DayZ. Submit it as a troubleshooting ticket in the help desk. Alternatively, you can search the forums for others having this issue or ask on IRC: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/815-dayz-live-chat/

Just a small announcement, I have taken the server down for 10-15 minutes for a small maintenance window. EDIT: Servers are back up EDIT 2: I forgot to fix the typo on US 870, it is running beta 95248.

liukang_168, Make sure all files are up to date (both DayZ mod and Hive) and that the Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable is installed on your server. If you have multiple external IPs, make sure you are using the IP you signed up with. If this doesn't help, I suggest opening a ticket on the support website.

Hang in there, I have everything logged, I just have to dig through stuff. Any specific information helps immensely. :)

Already looking into it as well. Thank you for the report. These guys are just persistent today aren't they? Oh well, more information for the ban list.

Thank you for the information, I'll look into it. Do you have an exact time stamp of the event?

May have been a temporary hiccup with the Hive. I'll keep monitoring the latency and cpu usage and see if I notice anything out of the ordinary. Thank you for the report 01ludedude, much appreciated. :)

The next reboot should be around 3-4pm central time. I hope the alpha didn't claim your hard work :(

Depends on how it's being done. If it's while the server is running, that's a no-no. If they shut it down and change the time zone, I don't think it's against the rules. But that's a lot of work and your log times will be all over the place @_@. The most important thing is that time ticks forward like normal while the sever is running and doesn't skip hours.

1) Pretty accurate. 1TB - 2TB per server in bandwidth depending on load and number of slots. 2) The four core VDS from NFO servers is great. I use the eight core package for my two DayZ severs + minecraft and tf2 3) Reserve slots are not available or allowed per DayZ hosting rules. Edit: whoa, stupid iPad and lack of sleep. I just necro'd a really old thread. -_- Oh well, this information may be useful to somebody :P

Time issues could possibly be related to desynchronization and low server side FPS. Rebooting often enough will help prevent that. :)

Yep, make sure you run all the games first though before installing SixUpdater. Both Arma 2, and Arma 2 OA and CO.

Shleal226, you need to download the mod and arma 2 beta. This page should walk you through the steps to do so: http://dayzmod.com/?SixUpdater Good luck. I'll check back later to make sure you got it all sorted. :)

I assume you went with the Six Updater method of installing dayz and the arma beta? What message are you getting when you're kicked?

It's a known quirk with deleting objects from the hive. I think Ander runs cleanup scripts every so often in the meantime. Best thing you can do is always keep a toolbox handy.

Is the line something like BIS_AirEffects plane explode or something similar like that? (I can't recall the exact name off the top of my head) If so, that is normal as well.

How often do you restart the server? It should be rebooted every 4-8 hours depending on load.

Asking for donations is probably the last thing the team wants to do. Aside from the possible headaches it may cause legally, favoritism because of wealth becomes a factor. The community shouldn't be split like that. I do understand your intention, and it's good, but they volunteer their time out of the passion of the mod and it's idea. Not for monetary gains. :)

The sticky in this category should answer your question: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/22386-admin-abuse-what-you-need-to-know/

Had to do some manual digging in the server .RPT. I suppose certain things could be parsed from the hive debug, but I'm not sure how reliable it would be.
