As for getting it on the wiki... technically OmniGraffle exports to SVG, but I haven't looked into that too far. Ideally it could be somewhat interactive. One thought I had for it was that it gave a good canvas to draw operation flow examples, for example an admin request coming in that broadcast's the upgrade command to all or a subsection of ComputeManagers and what happens from there. Once I finish writing up a couple mini-proposals regarding the rolling upgrade procedures I'll revisit the diagram to add some of the features I had in mind. > > I'll study this further tomorrow but wanted to send a quick note of > appreciation. > > Anne > > ** > *Anne Gentle* > [email protected] > <http://www.facebook.com/conversationandcommunity> > my blog <http://justwriteclick.com/> | my > book<http://xmlpress.net/publications/conversation-community/>| > LinkedIn <http://www.linkedin.com/in/annegentle> | > Delicious<http://del.icio.us/annegentle>| > Twitter <http://twitter.com/annegentle> > > > On Sun, Oct 17, 2010 at 2:18 AM, Andy Smith <[email protected]> wrote: > >> In researching a solution to give us reliable rolling upgrades it seemed >> helpful to have an overview of the current layout of the code. >> >> It is incomplete (missing objectstore, only begins to deal with the public >> api side of things, no db interaction, somewhat haphazardly laid out), but I >> think it is a good basis for a visual language to describe this stuff.
