Downtime between 19:07 and 19:38

27 Sep '11

Hello all, between 19:07 and 19:38 (UTC) the toolserver was non-accessable from outside and sql-using inside was also not possible (I guess several other things failed too). The reason was that one of our high-availability-servers half- crashed and the other didn't notice it and some services were splitted between them. A rebooting of the half-crashed fixed this. FYI.

S4-user Maintaince Tuesday
by DaB. 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Hello all, on Tuesday 12 o'clock UTC I will move S4-user from its temporary host back to the correct place. It will take a few hours to do that, but I can't say how many exactly (it depends how much data is in the user-databases). During this time the user-databases on s4 (commons) will be read-only. After the import is done it will also need a config-change which will kill all database-connections (on every host to every database). Not affected will be s4-rr (beside the config-change-killing). So if you have a tool which only reads in commons, but doesn't use a user-database, make sure to use commons-p.rrdb.toolserver.org instead of commons-p.userdb.toolserver.org (see [1] for details) and you should not be affected (beside the config-change-killing). I will send an eMail when the moving is done. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the mailinglist. Sincerly, DaB.

/ on willow was full — postmortem
by DaB. 09 Sep '11

09 Sep '11

Hello all, between midnight and 11 o'clock (both time-valuies are estimates and UTC) willow was unusable, because the root-partion of willow had run full by a tool which flooded the user-log (I messaged the tool-runers seperatly already). I cleaned some old audit-logs and moved the big user-log out of the way. I also rebooted willow to make sure that the space was freeed and that all crashed services run again. I should now usable again. If not, please fill a bug. For details you can take a look at [1]. Sincerly, DaB.
