Hi, 

 

It been a while now that I have noticed my instance status goes into Offline mode. I have try different refresh methods, but it seems to not resolve the issue.
I have this message ''Developer Instance is undergoing unscheduled maintenance. Get Notified when your PDI is available.''

Is there anyone facing the same issue or  please suggest an around way of fixing this ? Please assist!!

Thanks

Hi @Barthelemy Ntor,

I haven’t run into issues with my own PDI today, but I often see quite a few posts from others mentioning the same “offline/maintenance” status. A couple of things worth noting:

  • PDIs don’t have official support, so sometimes the only option is to wait.

  • In many cases, the instance comes back online within a day or so.

  • If you don’t want to wait, you can release the current instance and request a new one, but keep in mind that all your data will be lost. It’s a good practice to regularly back up update sets so you don’t lose work.

Most of the time, these PDIs come back on their own after a short while.

Thanks & Regards, 
Muhammad Iftikhar

Unfortunately PDI related issues are not supported by ServiceNow team and there are random instances that face this issue. You can try to refresh the instance and wait for it come back in few hours. If it does not come online, it would be good to release the instance and get a new one.

 

If this helped to answer your query, please mark it helpful & accept the solution. 

 

Thanks,

Hi @Barthelemy Ntor ,

 

Please refer this post

PDI Instance is Offline shows unscheduled Maintena... - ServiceNow Community

 

Today some PDI's went for unscheduled maintenance, ServiceNow now may be working to solve this issue, but there is no such any official support. You can report that and it will notify you once your instance is back online.

 

You either wait or release the current instance and get a new one, but your any saved work will lost there is no way that you can get once you release the instance.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Thanks,
Bhimashankar H
