Hi everyone,
Are there any updates regarding Wikipedia's backup systems? I've created a bug to track this at https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18255.
Cheers, Eugene

We'll be doing an audit soon to get our backup list up to date and make sure anything that's been stalled or delayed gets back on track.

Hi Brion,
May you please check also the behemoth file (English meta history) because it is always giving me an CRC error when decompressing with winRAR. The same error comes also with pbzip2.
I am not sure if anyone else was able to decompress, parse, and rebuild this file locally.

Hi,
It's been a year since my initial enquiry and whilst a full enwiki dump has been accomplished, there still doesn't seem to be a comprehensive backup strategy in place and documented.
The wiki page at http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Backup_procedures still shows that commons images are vulnerable.. This is basically a reminder for bug https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18255..
Thanks as always for all your work & effort, Eugene

We should have an offsite (= not in Florida) backup for images shortly. At the moment we have replication running every 10 minutes to another host in Florida and snapshots at least hourly.

Hi everyone,
As far as I can tell from the http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Backup_procedures page, backups are still not sorted out.. Image backups are not available and even the AWS datasets haven't been updated as promised (http://aws.amazon.com/datasets/2506).
Glancing at the Wikimedia foundation financial report, the money is there, staff are being hired and there are lots of projects going on. I wonder what should be done to give this a higher priority?
Concerned wiki editor, Eugene
