Change request - Yum update

2009-08-11 Thread Mike McGrath
Turns out there's yet another kernel update available for RHEL5.  Since
I've run into issues updating a kernel and not other packages I'd like us
to do a yum update of all the packages.  We shouldn't be far off but
there's a kernel and glibc update available.  We can run them through
staging first for good measure.

The reboot is on Thursday, it'd be good to have this all done prior to
that.

xen15 outage - sorry :-(

2009-08-11 Thread Ricky Zhou
Hey, here's a quick report of what just happened on xen15 and its
guests:

At around 3:00 UTC, I saw a puppet error email complaining about an
error on running /sbin/service iscsi start on xen15.  I logged onto
xen15 and stupidly ran a /etc/init.d/iscsi restart, realizing what I had
actually done a moment later.

I saw disk errors on the consoles of db2 and relepel1, which were on
iscsi.  At this point, I tried to shut all iscsi guests on that machine
down (db2, relepel1, sign-bridge1) with xm shutdown.  db2 and relepel1
both finished shutting down, but I had to xm destroy sign-bridge1 as it
hung at the end.

After all guests were down, I followed the Logging Out procedure at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ISCSI_Infrastructure_SOP, ran
/etc/init.d/iscsi restart, then followed the Logging In procedure.

At that point, I was able to xm create all three guests again, and they
seem back up now (although an unrelated VPN outage is still keeping web
apps down at the moment).

If anybody sees any issues on any of these hosts - particularly with
data on db2, it could be related to this.  Sorry about this, I'll
definitely think more before I run a command like that next time.

Thanks,
Ricky

Change request - Convert smolt host table to innodb

2009-08-11 Thread Ricky Zhou
Hi, we've been looking at all the smolt outages recently, and after
looking into it a bit, we'd like to try converting the host table in the
smolt database to InnoDB so that we will get row level locking.

This is a very low impact change, and when we tested in staging, it
caused smolt to stop accepting new submissions for about 20 minutes
(smoltSendProfile will simply time out during that period).  If we run
into any issues, we can easily revert back to MyISAM (and doing so took
5 minutes on staging).  

Can I get two +1s for this?

Thanks,
Ricky

[Change Request] Don't try to restart iscsi{,d}

2009-08-11 Thread Ricky Zhou
In light of what I just did to xen15, I'd like to make this change so
that puppet never makes the same mistake :-)
