Communication:

There should be something on:

When?

  • send the mail on opensuse-announce both on 2017-09-29 and a reminder 3 and 1 day before
  • news.opensuse.org will see an article at 2017-09-29
  • add a shortened version on progres.opensuse.org around 2017-10-06 (later as the news.o.o article, to have this news as 2nd reminder on planet.o.o)
  • 2017-10-06 headers of important services like wiki, forums and OBS should be changed to announce the downtime
  • 2017-10-10 Email announcements go out to:
    • opensuse-project
    • opensuse-factory
    • opensuse-buildservice
  • 2017-10-13
    • change the topic headers on all #opensuse-* IRC channels
    • again an announcement mail on opensuse-announce

Action items:

  • cboltz, ada_lovelace: ask darix to change the channel topics on all #opensuse-* IRC channels for the downtime
  • tampakrap: prepare announcements and sent them around as planned
  • tampakrap: be around on IRC during the downtime, to help our customers ;-)

Services Migration:

  • status2: take a recent dump from status.o.o and change dns (AI: lrupp)
  • download.opensuse.org is a must have - this includes a redundant PostgreSQL cluster and a mirror machine (no scanner) (AI: lrupp)
  • static.opensuse.org as well
  • conncheck is also important
  • freeipa.infra.opensuse.org needs a master-master setup anyway (and is needed to not loose the DNS)
  • chip is also needed (the machine that transfers the dns data to MF) - not really, as the DNS servers from MF transfer only from a specific IP, which can not be running in the Provo DC. Instead, we need to enlarge the TTL for the zone transfer to at least 4 days BEFORE the downtime

The haproxy in Provo should deliver 503 pages for all other services that are not migrated (and therefor down) during the downtime.

If time permits:

  • scar - to get a log in point in Provo
  • Galera cluster (as slave with a bigger lag)
  • lists
  • wiki machines (main + elastic search) - in read only mode
  • keyserver
