Server administrating

Recommended Posts

Hey people.

 

We currently rent a private Vilayer server and I could need some help to figure out how to extract the logs properly and get the data I want. In addition I wonder how the current legacy version works with persistence. Some servers say they reset their persistence daily to avoid the same loot beeing there the whole week. Anyone able to assist me on this?

 

Thanks in advance.

Download Notepad++ (it's free) and when you download the log file right click on it and click "Edit with Notepad++" and it'll open the file. 

 

I reset the persistence on mine with every 4 hour restart. In the scheduled tasks, you should have an option to reset persistence. Set this up to run with each 4 hour restart.

I found the option to reset my persistence.. however I do not know where to inject this into sheduled restarts on the vilayer weblayout :/

You can add a sheduled task from the ACP start screen in the 'sheduled tasks' tab. Click "new". In the dropdown list you can choose reset persistance.

No, you need to enable BEC at the "addon manager".

 

After you've done this go to "configuration files" here you will find a 'sheduler.xml' edit this file for the restart messages.

 

Here is an example of how I did it:

 

<job id="0">
    <time>00:03:55</time>
    <delay>000000</delay>
    <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day>
    <loop>0</loop> 
    <cmd>say -1 Server will restart in 5 minutes!</cmd>
    <cmdtype>0</cmdtype>
</job>

It seems they (Vilayer) just removed the option to reset the persistance? I can't see it anymore in my ACP...

 

In the scheduled task yea :/

 

I got a slave shard with them, and it didn't have the option, so sent a ticket in and they said they were yet to add it to slave shards too. Got a reply back today saying their development team wanted it removing altogether for whatever reason, so neither master or slave have it as a scheduled task now. Could try sending a ticket in, too. If enough kick up a fuss they might add it back in.

I'll go do that now, Hope it helps, now we can't even get our loot respawning...

 

I don't get their reason behind it.

 

I can do it manually, but I don't want to have to do it manually every restart, so a scheduled task would be a huge help. It's just like if I wanted to add in 2 hour restarts, I wouldn't manually restart it when I wanted the extra restart, I'd setup the scheduled task...

For some odd reason my sheduled task is still there.. not sure if they changed it today as I was away yesterday but it's still around and was executed today the time I set it to happen.
