Hello all,
some time pasted since our last maintaince-window in June, so hereby I
announce the next maintaince-window for
Wednesday, 9. November between 16:00 and 20:59 UTC.
During this time some software will be updated, server will get rebooted and
services may be broken or away. The biggest change will be that we move back
from ZEUS to apache – a test-enviroment is setup at the moment and will be
ready at 2. November at lastest (I will announce details in a later eMail).
If you have suggestions for software that should be updated (like php, perl,
mono or something), please fill in a JIRA-bug [1] and tag/label it with
"maintaince-window" until 2. November. The roots will list what will be
updated/changed/removed at [2].
Sincerly,
DaB.

Hello all,
how Daniel Kinzler told you in his mail of 5. October already, the german
chapter hired an new admin for the toolserver. Her nick-name is nosy and she
is from Germany.
She will be in IRC on this Thursday after 19 o'clock UTC for a virtual meet-
and-greet-thing and some questions. I hope you all will give her a warm
welcome and be nice to her (I will be arround too).
Sincerly,
DaB.

Hello all,
today the sql-partion on thyme (the server which hosts sql-s1-user) finaly
became full so replication was not longer possible. The German Verein works on
a solution to expand the disc-capazity but that will take some time. As
interim-solution, I dropped the copy of commons on thyme. So that reason it
will not longer be possible to join enwiki with commons AND a user-database.
If you need to join enwiki with commons you can still use sql-s1-rr and if you
need to join enwiki with a user-database you can still use sql-s1-user. I will
try to setup federation to fix this, but I'm not sure if it will works.
Sincerly,
DaB.

I fixed this now. I'm still investigate, but LDAP was away (so nothing could be
authenticated and so no login, webservice or cron was possible). I think that
happens because the network-cable between the both HA-severs is defect.
Sorry for the downtime.
