I am unable to log onto Garona on this character. I am in SMV. It shows World Server Down. I can log onto my DK in the starting area on Garona. I assume they are separate servers. I addressed this in the Technical Support forums and was directed here. Post there has same title. Thank you for your time.

We are still in the midst of rolling restarts this morning. Hopefully this will resolve itself soon.

World Server actually refers to a sub area, usually a continent within the world proper. It's not entirely uncommon for certain areas to 'wake up' a little later than others.

Another common thing you may see right after a realm has come back into service from a rolling restart is a bit of lag on mail and the AH - those systems also tend to reactivate last.

If it's been that long, let me inquire :)

There does indeed seem to be an issue, thank you very much for the reports.

Northrend appears active, but the old lands and Outland do seem to be having some issues.

Our techs are looking into this now, it may require another restart. If you are in on Northrend be mindful of that :)
