in regards to: /139/80/151757/1.htmlif simXXX can no longer be used to determine the sim your island is currently on what can be used? How can we know if our sim came up on the wrong class after a reset? I think this is important and needs to be addressed. Thank you.

First, I think you are right and we need a way to convey the server class information to estate owners, if not everyone. Especially the cpu ratio (ie the "light use" 4 to 1 sims) as well. However, right now that just isn't in place.
Part of a regions definition includes which class of machine it runs on. Notice that it isn't "which class it should run on" or "which class it wants to run on", it is "which class it will run on". If for example your sim is a fancy new class 5 sim and your host dies (very rare) and there are no other class 5s available to pick it up (extremely rarer) ... your sim will stay down. It can only come up on a class 5, unless someone specifically changes the definition of your region.
What I'm trying to say is that it is impossible for a region to come up on the wrong class after a reset.
