New hardware ordered
by Daniel Kinzler 28 Jun '11

28 Jun '11

Hi all I'm happy to let you know that new hardware has been ordered by Wikimedia Deutschland and will arrive probably in about two weeks. We will get two new systems: * A more powerful web server, to replace hemlock: Sun Fire X4150, 2x Quad-Core Xeon, 8GB RAM, 2x73GB SAS HDD. The current web server only has two cores. * Another database server, to be used for S1 (english wikipedia), so S1 and S3 no longer have to share a server: Sun Fire X4250, 2x Quad-Core Xeon, 32GB RAM, 16x146GB SAS RAID. This should improve performance and give us some head space for growth. Once the new servers arrive, S3 will be re-imported too, so we will have live data again. Any ideas for names? To stay with the nightshade theme, how about Jurubeba and Erubia? Or perhaps we go the "witches' weed" way, with Datura and Mandrake? Henbane is taken, i think. Amanita sounds nice, too :) A third server has been ordered, which will also be installed in Amsterdam, but will not be part of the toolserver cluster. It's a storage server (X4540, 24TB RAID) that will keep a live backup of all media files. Cheers, Daniel

Iterating over all wikis
by Danny B. 15 Aug '10

15 Aug '10

Hello, performing of random same queries over the given set of wikis (typically random statistics) is apparently one of the very usual tasks done by toolserver users. I have started https://wiki.toolserver.org/view/Iterating_over_wikis where I would appreciate if you could share your code excerpts in random languages. (Feel free to add yours if it's missing.) I bet there are random ways how to do such task, good and bad, effective and ineffective, resource consuming or not, so one of the aims is to have the most effective algorithms on this task published there, so everyone can use them instantly. Thank you for cooperation. Kind regards Danny B.

It would be a nice time-saver, to turn the names of servers or services accessible via http(s) into links, such as JIRA, or ortelius (which is btw. currently missing from the list) at http://status.toolserver.org/ Can that be done without too much hassle? Greetings - Purodha -- Greetings - Purodha

I'm going to suspend replication on cassia (sql-s4) for a few hours, in order to generate a missing index on globalimagelinks. should be done by tonight. We'll probably do the same on the other servers soon. -- daniel

Update of debian-packages at nightshade

Hello all, on Sunday at 20 o'clock UTC I will update several packages on nightshade. This will include perl, python and java. The details can be found at [1]. If you think, that one of the updates can or will break one of your tools, please open a jira-bug-report and link it and I will see if I can exclude the package for some time. Sinclery, DaB.

cassia (sql-s[346]) issues
by River Tarnell 26 Jul '10

26 Jul '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, cassia, the SQL server for sql-s[346], is currently offline. Load for these clusters is being served by hyacinth (sql-s[346]-fast), but user databases are not available. We are investigating the issue with cassia, but it will probably need to be reimported, which might take 2-3 days. - river. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkxIKqcACgkQIXd7fCuc5vK78wCdHLYUxOB+Q7DHLGoDnG6TziV8 0VAAoIsuLvnNydt9B0MyZrVuGtkVoLrM =lsUy -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Maintenance on hyacinth
by River Tarnell 20 Jul '10

20 Jul '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I am about to remove hyacinth (sql-s[346]-fast) from rotation for some internal testing. It will return to service in the testing configuration in a day or two. In the mean time, cassia (the non-fast server) will continue to serve these clusters, but there will be no redundancy in case of failure. - river. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkxFj5IACgkQIXd7fCuc5vLWtQCgi5ZiDRYTCPWqsl286rujvRCX jesAn2TKWnlxucp0OZt4Xbt4VGomXNke =9zLT -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Software upgrades
by River Tarnell 10 Jul '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Later today (Saturday) I will upgrade some software on the Solaris login and web servers. A list of all software to be upgraded is at the end of this mail. In general, this should not affect users. However, if you have built local software (e.g. C programs or Perl modules) against libraries in /opt/ts, you should be aware that some libraries have bumped their sovers. The affected libraries are: * libhistory * libjpeg * liblcms * libMagickCore * libMagickWand * libpng * libreadline * libyaz Any software linking against these libraries will need to be recompiled, or it will fail with an error like this: ld.so.1: convert: fatal: libjpeg.so.7: open failed: No such file or directory - river. perl512/TSperl512-DBI 1.611 perl512/TSperl512-Class-MOP 1.03 perl512/TSperl512-Digest-SHA1 2.13 perl512/TSperl512-Moose 1.08 perl512/TSperl512-Mouse 0.62 perl510/TSperl510-Class-MOP 1.03 perl510/TSperl510-DBI 1.611 perl510/TSperl510-App-Cronjob 1.101660 perl510/TSperl510-Digest-SHA1 2.13 perl510/TSperl510-Moose 1.08 perl510/TSperl510-Mouse 0.62 perl5/TSperl5-LWP 5.835 perl5/TSperl5-Email-Abstract 3.002 perl5/TSperl5-Error 0.17016 perl5/TSperl5-IO-Socket-INET6 2.65 perl5/TSperl5-Log-Log4perl 1.29 perl5/TSperl5-Net-Ident 1.23 perl5/TSperl5-POE-C-IRC 6.35 perl5/TSperl5-POE-C-Pluggable 1.26 perl5/TSperl5-WWW-Mechanize 1.64 *audio/TSlibogg 1.2.0 *audio/TSlibvorbis 1.3.1 *database/TSlibmysqlpp 3.1.0 *database/TSsqlite 3.6.23 devel/TSant 1.8.1 devel/TSautoconf 2.66 devel/TSautomake 1.11.1 devel/TSbzr 2.1.2 devel/TSgcc44 4.4.4 devel/TSgit 1.7.1.1 devel/TShg 1.6 devel/TSintltool 0.41.1 devel/TSpkgconfig 0.25 *devel/TSsubversion 1.6.12 devel/TSswig 2.0.0 editors/TSemacs 23.2 editors/TSnano 2.2.4 editors/TSvim 7.2.445 fonts/TSdejavu-fonts 2.31 gnu/TSdiffutils 3.0 gnu/TSgtar 1.23 graphics/TSgnuplot 4.4.0 *graphics/imagemagick 6.6.3-0 *graphics/TSlcms 2.0 graphics/TSgraphviz 2.26.3 *graphics/TSjpeg 8b *graphics/TSliblqr 0.4.1 *graphics/TSlibpng 1.4.3 *graphics/TSlibtiff 3.9.4 *graphics/TSpango 1.28.1 *graphics/TSpixman 0.18.2 *graphics/TSrrdtool 1.4.4 *irc/TSirssi 0.8.15 irc/TSpython26-supybot 0.83.4.1 *libs/TSapr 1.4.2 *libs/TSgmp 5.0.1 *libs/TSlibconfuse 2.7 *libs/TSctemplate 0.97 *libs/TSlibedit 20100424-3.0 *libs/TSlibgsf 1.14.18 *libs/TSicu 4.4.1 *libs/TSicu-gcc 4.4.1 *libs/TSlibsigcxx 2.2.8 libs/TSlibtool 2.2.8 *libs/TSlibxml2 2.7.7 *libs/TSmpfr 3.0.0 *libs/TSpcre 8.10 *libs/TSproj4 4.7.0 *libs/TSreadline 6.1 *libs/TSslang 2.2.2 *libs/TSyaz 4.0.11 mail/TSexim 4.72 net/TSlftp 4.0.9 *net/TSlibevent 1.4.14b *net/TSopenldap 2.4.23 security/TSsudo 1.7.3 sysutils/TSmbuffer 20100526 sysutils/TSnagios-core 3.2.1 *sysutils/TSopenssh 5.5p1+hpn13-v9 *sysutils/TSpbzip2 1.1.1 textproc/TSgawk 3.1.8 textproc/TSgrep 2.6.3 *www/TScurl 7.21.0 www/TSlynx 2.8.7rel.2 www/TSphp53-apc 3.1.3p1 *x11/TSatk 1.30.0 *x11/TSlibXext 1.1.2 *x11/TSlibXrender 0.9.6 *x11/TSlibX11 1.3.4 *x11/TSlibXt 1.0.8 *x11/TSlibxcb 1.6 *x11/TSlibXdmcp 1.0.3 x11/TSx11-xproto 7.0.17 x11/TSx11-xtrans 1.2.5 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.15 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkw4DXwACgkQIXd7fCuc5vL3KQCbB10AWGwyqqfgk7PFlve8veOZ Ly0AmQHH7ztiyoOkPwbCHJr81pp0ZidN =KFZ5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
