Hello, We have requested a 30 minutes read-only window for s7 (T238046) for the 26th November from 06:00-06:30 AM UTC to switchover that section primary database master (T238044)
db1062 is an old host and out of warranty that will be decommissioned (T217396). The new master will be db1086
We are going to do this on Tuesday 26th Nov from 06:00 to 06:30 AM UTC (we do not expect to use the 30 minutes window, if everything goes as expected).
Impact: Writes will be blocked on the following wikis: arwiki cawiki eswiki fawiki frwiktionary hewiki huwiki kowiki metawiki rowiki ukwiki viwiki
Reads will remain unaffected.
This also includes centralauth database, which means some operations might fail during the read-only period, such as: GlobalRenames, Changing/Confirming emails, logging into new wikis, password changes...
Communication will happen at #wikimedia-operations If you are around at that time and want to help with the monitoring, please join us!
Thanks
Hello,
This will start in 1h.
Thanks. Manuel.
