Savannah Users, Today, a few minutes ago, we migrated the CVS data and services off of the vcs0+oldvcs combination and over to vcs1 as a standalone server.
All appears to be working. Please report any problems that you might experience with the CVS services. For some details... Previously we had tried to migrade off of the old vcs system and onto the new vcs0+nfs1 combination where vcs0 handled all of the frontend and nfs1 handled all of the storage. This mostly worked but the "mostly" part that failed was file ACLs from the new storage server. Strangely and unfathomably they are not functioning from the new storage server. Since those were not functioning things were rolled back to the old server. But that old server still needed to go! We had to move. And soon. In order to get that done on the time schedule needed a new system vcs1 was set up to handle everything standalone avoiding the troublesome nfs1 server that isn't behaving. Eventually the problem with nfs1 will be understood and fixed but this keeps things moving so that we can decommission the old hardware on the schedule needed. And "scaling-out" with a separate system is a good direction for things regardless. Bob
