this.piston.rocks maintenance downtime 11/Jan/2017 09am UTC
I would like to inform everyone that the this.piston.rocks API node
(provided by ChainSquad GmbH) will be down for
approximately 1h tomorrow starting at 9am UTC in order to upgrade to
v0.16.1.
We expect the new code to be more robust and less IO intensive and hope
for higher throughputs to become less stressing for the hardware.
In the meantime, we recommend redirecting your services to
wss://node.steem.ws until Steemit offers a high-availability endpoint.
Please also consider approving chainsquad's witness: chainsquad.com! Thanks.
Thanks for the info!
Thanks for the hard work

If I'm using steem python, how to redirect to wss://node.steem.ws?
piston set node wss://node.steem.wsThanks! But I'm to newb to use it properly ;)
I type in the console: piston set node wss://node.steem.ws
Then run my script but it still displays:
Lost connection to node during wsconnect(): wss://this.piston.rocks (2/-1) Retrying in 2 seconds
There's probably something very simple that I'm missing :)
Sorry for the inconvenience. It seems there is a small bug in the code somewhere that I have fixed in the develop branch already. Expect a new release this or next week.
Hopefully, the piston node will be up again shortly but I need to resync and it takes a while, unfortunately ..
It's all OK, thank you for your work:)
Hi Xeroc, any updates to the new release?
