Hello all,
We would like to announce that we are going to upgrade both hardware and OS of the production Gerrit server.
We will be doing the maintenance on October 21th, 2019 at 12pm PST time (7pm UTC time, 8pm UK time) [1].
This brings increased resources such as CPU and RAM. We will also be doing a dist upgrade from jessie to buster.
We have outgrown our current server (cobalt) so you may notice improvements due to increased resources.
The jessie server "cobalt" will be replaced by "gerrit1001" on buster, skipping stretch.
For more details or to report issues please see the ticket [2] and topic branch gerrit1001 [3].

On behalf of Patrick, Daniel and Tyler.

This has been completed.
Gerrit is now running on Debian Buster and a new server, gerrit1001, with 64GB RAM.
Next will be tuning the config to make use of it.
If you happen to notice weird behaviour with some Gerrit patches that show as unmerged when they are actually merged or similar, please just leave them as they are for now but do add links to this ticket:
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T236114
Unfortunately some got in a bad state during the migration but it is being worked on.
After quite a bit of thought and experimentation we've managed to, I believe, resolve the issue of reappearing patchsets on the new gerrit server. All the gory details are available on the Phabricator task[0].
Thank you everyone, as always, for your patience and support.
