Hi,
We need around 20 minutes of downtime to all services that write to db9 for replication maintenance. Outside of services that support the ops team, this primarily means bugzilla, etherpad, and civicrm. It will remain available for read queries, however, so read usage of services such as the tech blog should continue along fine. I'm planning to start this on Weds at 18:00 PST and will send follow-up mail at the start and completion of maintenance.

Glad to see db9 getting some love :p The fundraising instance of CiviCRM no longer uses db9 - are there other CiviCRM instances out there using it? If so, I imagine they exist and are supported outside of engineering and should probably be communicated with directly.

Tonight's maintenance on db9 is completed, during which it was read-only for 7 minutes. I'm going to perform a second round of maintenance tomorrow at the same time (Thursday 18:00PST) which will provide the long-term fix to db9's woes. Availability of the same set of services will be interrupted for a similar length of time.
