7AM Restart?

Post by .=QUACK=.Major.Pain »

I know we discussed this in the past and I was told that the 7AM restart doesn't force a restart on BF3, but I think it is.

I have been watching our server every morning before work, and at 7am or very shortly after it seems to restart, or coincidently crash. I think restart, since our server never seems to crash.

I have selected ignore 7am restart in the cp since day one, but lie I said, something happens around 7am.

There isn't a problem with that function. We have tons of other servers that just stay full all the time and are never restarted.

I have mine restart at 7 am and it's a good thing.
Mine fills up immediately as soon as it restarts.

It's not supposed to restart if people are in it.

The functionality of never restarting if it does not empty is enabled by default. IcEWoLF must have turned it off.

Server was emptied about the same time this morning as the past couple mornings.

Just dumped everyone out (crashed) 2 mins ago too.

At 6am EDT this morning, Blaze did have some issues. Most of our servers lost their players at that time.

All versions of BF3 have crashing problems, and all RSPs are seeing them quite frequently. (I've mentioned this in a few threads, but it's worth repeating.) I send crash logs and dumps to DICE and have sent quite a few with each server release. If you feel that you have a new and unique type of crash, have me retrieve the files and I will send them to DICE.

So a back end issue is what causes all my servers to dump their players at the same time?

With Blaze or problems connecting to it, yes. BC2 had the same issue until they made the back end for it more stable, but a problem with it would still cause the same problem in that game also.
