Emergency maintenance?

[Mug]

We just got a message to log out due to an emergency maintenance on Sargatanas. I can't seem to find any info about it on the Lodestone, nor the game client. Anyone know how long it will be?

Last time that message was displayed it was a false alarm.

It's a trick to make you log out!

My partner just got that same message on Cerberus, but we can't find any other info on it. :-/

[Laifon]

Don't tell me I logged off for nothing after having tried to log in for hours...

[OD11]

So I just got booted

My FC said that it was emergency maintenance for the JP servers. And lo and behold the JP servers are up and running just fine and the NA/EU servers cannot be accessed!

Miscommunication or shit surprise yet again?

Got the same message on Odin, but the server is still up.

Sometimes emergency maintenance applies only to a server (i.e. a subset of zones within a world), so the whole world doesn't actually go offline.

Also, "emergency" usually means it wasn't decided in committee, sent as a memo to other departments, and then scheduled for posting on the noticeboard with plenty of advance notice.
