Hi!
We deleted the prometheus user from LDAP and created it locally [0].
This may cause puppet failures, since there is a timeframe in which the
id/gid in /var/lib/prometheus is the old LDAP one.
We are running a massive, CloudVPS-wide deluser/adduser/chown operation
to fix this.

ToolsDB will be undergoing maintenance and updates, Tuesday, June 5th at 1500 UTC to 1600 UTC.
Actual outage times should be fairly brief, but during this time the database will be taken offline and the system rebooted. Due to the expected brief nature of the outage and the fact that some tables are not replicated (see https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Database#ToolsDB_Backups… <https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Toolforge/Database#ToolsDB_Backups…>), we are not planning on failing over to the replica at this time.
