I am scheduled to do a deployment (to all wikis) for MobileFrontend this
Thursday afternoon:
* I presume scap/sync-blah will still work for 1.21wmf7 - can you please
confirm?
* Will I *have* to use git-deploy for 1.21wmf8 or will scap/sync-blah still
work?
And to reiterate my question from a few days ago re the deployment freeze
next week:
* During the 'deployment freeze', in the event that someone needs to deploy
an emergency fix, what do we do and who do we need to communicate with?
Will scap/deploy-whatever still be functional, or will gti-deploy be the
de-facto deployment method at that point?

On the date you plan to deploy 1.21wmf8 to test,
test2, and mediawiki; do
you also plan on deploying it to Wikidata with them or with the other
non-Wikipedias?

Hi everyone,
As you probably read from CT's email last week about the Eqiad
migration (you read that, right? No? Go read it. I'll wait)
Ok, done now? So, as you know (now), we plan to suspend all scheduled
deployments next week during the data center migration (January
21-25). We'd like to keep the number of moving parts to a minimum,
thus we'd like to avoid changing anything unless necessary.
That said, we are contemplating leaving the Wednesday window for
1.21wmf8 to non-Wikipedia in place as a means of testing deployments
themselves. Unlike previous core deployments (which are pretty
routine), we're reserving the right not to have that deployment, and
may delay the already-revised deployment calendar one more week if
things are still messy on Wednesday. I'm guessing that the odds of
that deployment happen are pretty low (I'll say "20%" based on aerial
extraction).
So, to reiterate the plan with respect to deployments over the next
couple of weeks:
January 14-15 (Mon-Tue): deployments from fenari to Tampa cluster
using scap/sync-file/sync-dir as normal.
January 16 (Wed): 1.21wmf8 deployed to test, test2, and
mediawiki.org
January 16-18 (Wed-Fri): 1.21wmf8 deployments using git-deploy from
fenari
January 17 (Thu): Brown bag with Ryan Lane and
Chris Steipp to talk
about git-deploy
January 21 (Mon): Deployment freeze (and U.S. holiday)
January 22-25 (Tue-Fri): Deployment freeze
January 23 (Wed): MAYBE 1.21wmf8 deployment to some or all non-Wikipedia
sites.
I hope this all makes sense. Questions/comments/concerns?
Rob
