A similar case happened with the Eve Online cluster (~50,000 concurrent users) a couple of years ago. A programmer, who for some reason had access to the live cluster, confused his local development instance with that of the live cluster and issued a shutdown. Luckily they were able to avert the incoming disaster in time (it was a timed shutdown), but jokes are still made about the mistake. http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=1232785 |
