Hello folks,

the wikimedia-server-admins had splited their database-server again. Now there are 3 groups of servers. s1 is en (the old en-group), s2 are dewiki, commons and 17 other wikis, and s3 are the rest (inklusiv frwiki). Because our replag was high as the split was done, we could not change our config at the same time, but have had to wait. Today at 4 o'clock (all time UTC) zedler reached the timestamp, when the split had done and stoped replication (the wikimedia-server-admins changed the masters too (samuel (the old master for non-en) was not the new master of s2 or s3). At evening I noticed this and fix the replication. Mysql replicate s2 at the moment and the replag decrease fast (~55ks in 4h). I planed to use my en-replication-tool for s3-replication, but I found a bug and stop it first (I try to fix it tomorrow) - I'm sorry for this.

http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2007-February/029950.html has more infos, which wiki are where.

If you have a question, please write a eMail.

Sincerly, DaB.
