From a technical stand point, what does 'servers down for maintenance' actually mean?

Like do they need dusting or what? I'd love to know what this oft read phrase actually means!

Edit, OP:

the magic cout needs to be recharged every so often or people will randomly go linkdead

Scout clicking finally broke the server.....

This scout business is great I must say. It sure beats setting in Southern Ro studying the ruins. I've been following these Storm Giants for days. They've been wandering up and down the coast looking for something.'

I'm going to guess that the Database tables are reindexed and defragmented. Transaction log files tidied up a bit.
Disc space cleared of temporary files.
Empty working slots of memory cleared and released back to server OS.

You know, the basics ;)

At least this gives me time to catch up on the forums and digest my 2/3 double steakburger with cheese and bacon...

unexpected hype!
Regular unscheduled maintenance or super patch preparation!?
Bat phones are going wild right now.

Maybe a ban wave? lol
