As part of the migration of labs from pmtpa to eqiad, I'll be redirecting wikitech to a new host in eqiad on Tuesday. This will require some downtime in order to make sure that the wikis are in sync between the two boxes. It should only take a few minutes, but don't be alarmed if things are off for an hour or so. -Andrew

Will the new wiki be faster? Will it not log me off randomly even if I check "remember me". Will it serve coffee to new users? On Wed, Mar 26, 2014 at 9:03 PM, Andrew Bogott <abogott(a)wikimedia.org> wrote:

Do you still have an issue where it logs you off randomly? That was very briefly an issue that I caused when I switched keystone to a redis token backend and incorrectly purged everyone's wiki tokens. I fixed that a few days later. If you're still having the issue you should open a bug. Also, wikitech pretty much assumes you'll be logged in, so I don't see it getting much faster, seeing as that MediaWiki is slow as hell for logged-in user no matter what you do. - Ryan

Reminder -- this will be happening about two hours from now. A dry run of the process was slower than expected, so wikitech may be unreachable for more than an hour. And, yeah, it's April first, but nevertheless the downtime will be real :) On 3/26/14 3:03 PM, Andrew Bogott wrote:

Migration is now finished. You may need to log out and in again in order to get complete labs functionality. -Andrew On 4/1/14 9:09 AM, Andrew Bogott wrote:
