Hello,
The SRE team will be carrying out an upgrade of the switches in eqiad row C: (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T331882) at 13:00 UTC. The network outage to this row resulting from this work is expected to be around 30 minutes, all being well.
In support of this work, the Data Engineering team will be putting HDFS file system into safe mode at approximately 12:30 UTC today, which means that write operations to the cluster will be refused.
Jobs sent to the YARN cluster will also be refused from around the same time, so please try to plan any work that you may have for the cluster to avoid this maintenance window.
Some additional internal-facing services for analytics such as Hive, Superset, Presto, and the Druid-analytics cluster will also be largely unavailable for some periods while the switch upgrade takes place.
The public-facing Analytics Query Service (AQS) will continue to function, albeit with a degraded response to some queries. However Wikistats ( stats.wikimedia.org) will be unavailable whilst the switch upgrade is in progress.
Finally, two of the stats servers, stat1007 and stat1009, will be unavailable, so please save any work that you may have on these servers before the loss of connectivity.
Please reach out via any of the normal channels (email: analytics@lists.wikimedia.org , IRC: #wikimedia-analytics , Slack #data-engineering ) if you have any queries or concerns.
Kind regards,
Steve Munene
