[Cloud] [Cloud-announce] Cloud-vps users: please claim your projects

2024-05-24 Thread Andrew Bogott
If you are a user of cloud-vps, please visit the following page and mark 
any projects that are still in use:


https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Cloud_VPS_2024_Purge

There are currently 95 unmarked projects on that page; any that remain 
unclaimed will be deemed abandoned and subject to shutdown in June.


I'm attaching the names of those 95 projects at the end of this email. 
If you see something on that list that you know to be important, please 
make a note on the wiki page (even if you are not an admin) so we know 
that somebody cares.


Thanks!

[Cloud] [Cloud-announce] Cloud-vps users: please claim your projects, and start replacing Debian Buster

2024-03-22 Thread Andrew Bogott

Hello!

In order to conserve resources and prevent bot-net hijacking, cloud-vps 
users have a few maintenance responsibilities. This spring two of these 
duties have come due: an easy one and a hard one. Tl;dr: visit 
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Cloud_VPS_2024_Purge, claim 
your projects, and replace any hosts still running Debian Buster.



-- #1: Claim your projects --

This one is easy. Please visit the following wiki page and make a small 
edit in your project(s) section, indicating whether you are or aren't 
still using your project:


https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Cloud_VPS_2024_Purge

this serves a couple of purposes. It allows us to identify and shut down 
abandoned or no-longer-useful projects, it provides us with some updated 
info about who cares about a given project (often useful for future 
contact purposes) and it increases visibility into projects that are 
used but unmaintained.


Regarding that last item: if you know that you depend on a project but 
are not an admin or member of that project, please make a note of that 
on the above page as well!



-- #2: Replace Debian Buster --

This one may require some work. Long term support for the Debian Buster 
OS release is quickly running out (ending June 30), so VMs running 
Buster need to be replaced with hosts running a new Debian version. You 
may or may not be responsible for Buster instances; you can see a break 
down of remaining Buster hosts on either of these pages:


https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Cloud_VPS_2024_Purge (you 
should be visiting that page anyway, because of item 1)


https://os-deprecation.toolforge.org/

More details about this process can be found here:

https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Buster_deprecation

Typically in-place upgrades of VMs don't work all that well, so my 
advice is to start fresh with a new server running Bookworm and to 
migrate workloads to the new host. I've found Cinder volumes to be a big 
help in this process; once all of  your persistent data and config is in 
a detachable volume it's fairly straightforward to move and will make 
future upgrades that much easier.


WMCS staff will be standing by to help with any quota changes you might 
need to help with this move; you can open a quota request ticket at 
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/project/view/2880/ -- and, as always, 
we'll do our best to support you on IRC and on the cloud mailing list.



Thank you for your support and attention!

-Andrew + the WMCS team

[Cloud] [Cloud-announce] Cloud VPS users, please claim your projects

2022-12-16 Thread Andrew Bogott

Hello cloud-vps users!

It's time for our annual cleanup of unused projects and resources. Every 
year or so the Cloud Services team tries to identify and clean up unused 
projects and VMs.  We do this via an opt-in process: anyone can mark a 
project as 'in use,' and that project will be preserved for another year.



I've created a wiki page that lists all existing projects, here:

https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Cloud_VPS_2022_Purge


If you are a VPS user, please visit that page and mark any projects that 
you use as {{Used}}.  Note that it's not necessary for you to be a 
project admin to mark something -- if you know that you're currently 
using a resource and want to keep using it, go ahead and mark it 
accordingly.  If you /are/ a project admin, please take a moment to mark 
which VMs are or aren't used in your projects.


When February arrives, I will shut down and begin the process of 
reclaiming resources from unused projects.


If you think you use a VPS project but aren't sure which, I encourage 
you to poke around on https://tools.wmflabs.org/openstack-browser/ to 
see what looks familiar.  Worst case, just email 
cloud@lists.wikimedia.org with a description of your use case and we'll 
sort it out there.


Exclusive toolforge users are free to ignore this email.


Thank you!

-Andrew and the WMCS team

which VMs are or aren't used in your projects.


When December arrives, I will shut down and begin the process of 
reclaiming resources from unused projects.


If you think you use a VPS project but aren't sure which, I encourage 
you to poke around on https://tools.wmflabs.org/openstack-browser/ to 
see what looks familiar.  Worst case, just email 
cloud@lists.wikimedia.org with a description of your use case and we'll 
sort it out there.


Exclusive toolforge users are free to ignore this task.

Thank you!

-Andrew and WMCS team
