Hi,
I am experiencing very slow https file transfer from the instance
mediawiki2latex in the project collection-alt-renderer to my local
computer in Germany. Transfers from upload.wikimedia.org to my local
computer still work quite fast. I already rebooted the instance but it
didn't help. Has anyone got an idea what is going wrong?
Yours Dirk
Hi,
I'm experiencing issues when trying to SSH into the CloudVPS in order to
access our project, to which I do have confirmed access.
I've carefully followed the instructions on
Help:Accessing_Cloud_VPS_instances
<https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Accessing_Cloud_VPS_instances>,
and I've verified that the correct SSH keys are associated with my account.
Despite this, I consistently receive the following error message when
attempting to connect with command:
*ssh producer.wikispeech.eqiad1.wikimedia.cloud*
Error:
*Connection closed by 185.15.56.87 port 22Connection closed by UNKNOWN port
65535*
Could you maybe help me troubleshoot what might be going wrong?

Hi there,
we will have a network maintenance operation happening on 2025-04-03 @ 11:30 UTC.
All Cloud VPS and Toolforge could be affected by this operation, which may last
for about 1 hour.
For details, please check https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T389958
regards.
Hello,
there will be a network maintenance operation happening on Thursday 2025-03-27
12:30 UTC that may impact all Wikimedia Cloud Services, including:
* Cloud VPS
* Toolforge
* PAWS
* and any others
The planned operation window will last for 1h, from 12:30 UTC to 13:30 UTC.
We have prepared the required changes and we are expecting no outages. But the
operation is sensitive and we would like you to be informed of potential service
disruptions as a result of the operations.
If you want more technical details, we are using a Phabricator ticket:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T389958
regards.
Next week I'll be performing a routine openstack upgrade, moving us to
version 2024.2 'dalmation'.
This is a minor change; apart from a few horizon fixes the change should
not be noticeable. There will be a short Horizon outage and a network
reset during the upgrade but users should be otherwise unaffected.
I'll start the upgrade at 14:00 UTC.
-Andrew

Hello,
If you have a Cloud VPS project and use opentofu to manage virtual resources,
this message is for your -- otherwise feel free to ignore. In particular,
Toolforge users are free to ignore this message.
The main Cloud VPS virtual network resource name is changing:
* from: lan-flat-cloudinstances2b
* to: VLAN/legacy
If your opentofu / terraform code mentions this network name, you will need to
update it.
See also Phabricator ticket: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T389942

Hello,
Are Wikidata QRank scores located at https://qrank.wmcloud.org/ still being hosted and supported by the WikiMedia Cloud Services? Currently, the site throws 500 errors and is preventing downloading the most recent set of QRank data. Is this a known intermittent issue, or is that data being permanently removed? If being removed, are there are other sources hosting that data?
Thanks,
David
Hello WMCS users,
I just wanted to follow up on my earlier email from 04 March. The Cloudelastic migration from Elastic -> OpenSearch is now complete as of 13 March[0] . As previously stated, this change should be invisible from a user perspective. That being said, please let us know if you are seeing any issues by responding here or in the ticket[1].
Best,
