We are starting the tests of a new SmartBots module, “Sim Governor”. This module allows remotely controlling your sim (or multiple sims) from a web page or from your scripts using SmartBots HTTP API.
All you need is your own bot added to the sim managers list. Bot processes your commands and manages the sim access lists and settings.
We will be updating a hardware of two bot servers on July 19th, 05:00 AM SLT.
The affected servers will be shut down, updated and immediately restarted. We expect about 5 minutes downtime for all SmartBots system bots and few of personal bots.
The follow-up will be posted to this blog post as soon as we complete the operation.
SmartBots is now on twitter!
Follow us @smartbots_sl today to get updates on important news, maintenance events and other bot related items.
We will be adding a new server to our cluster today at 05:00 AM SLT. Some bots will be moved to this server and will go offline for 5-10 minutes (this relates mostly to SmartBots system bots though).
If you experience any further difficulties, feel free to send a message to SmartBots official group chat.
P.S. We are going to send such upcoming maintenance notifications every time from now on. This notification has been sent 1 hour before the maintenance event; if you have any comments or wishes please send us a message or post a reply to this blog entry.
