Re: [GNC] [MAINT] server upgrade planned Feb 3, 2019 1200-2300 US/EST
Hi, Just a reminder that this is planned for tomorrow. I'm still not 100% sure of the exact timing, but I'll announce on IRC before I start and will be available on IRC during the process. I'll send mail when the upgrade is complete! -derek Derek Atkins writes: > Hi, > > PLANNED MAINTENANCE > WHAT: Upgrading Operating System on Code > WHEN: Feb 3, 2019 1200-2300 US/EST (1700-0400 UTC) > > > tl;dr: I am planning to upgrade the OS on code.gnucash.org on February > 3, 2019 from 1200-2300 US/EDT (1700-0400 UTC).

I've upgraded several machines (real and virtual) from F25 -> F29 over the past week or two. Some have gone more smoothly than others. But of course YMMV. For example, there were some packaging issues going from F27 -> F28 that required me to remove some packages, upgrade, and then add them back in. I don't think code will be affected by this, but you never know. This is also why I try very very very hard to keep to distributed packages and not build-your-own. The real key, however, is to make sure that all the services are properly configured at the end of the process. For example, on one server I had the httpd.conf file got reset, which required me to re-configure it. I suspect this will happen on code, too. In other case, a giflib program that I was using was dropped (upstream), causing some scripts to break. This specifically wont affect code, but a similar issue might arrise. It's "minor" things like this that I feel will take the most amount of time, not the dnf system-upgrade steps. > Please remember to CC this list on all your replies. > You can do this by using Reply-To-List or Reply-All. -derek -- Derek Atkins 617-623-3745 de...@ihtfp.com www.ihtfp.com Computer and Internet Security Consultant ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

I don't expect to have 11 hours of down time -- but I don't know what my personal schedule will be that day so I wanted to leave wiggle-room for when I'll actually get to do the work. I might not be able to start until 1800 local time instead of 1200 local -- it's really going to depend on the family and our superbowl plans.

[GNC] [MAINT] server upgrade planned Feb 3, 2019 1200-2300 US/EST
Hi, PLANNED MAINTENANCE WHAT: Upgrading Operating System on Code WHEN: Feb 3, 2019 1200-2300 US/EST (1700-0400 UTC) tl;dr: I am planning to upgrade the OS on code.gnucash.org on February 3, 2019 from 1200-2300 US/EDT (1700-0400 UTC). During this time, git master, wiki, email/mailman, and gncbot/irc logs will all be unavailable. I'll be on #gnucash IRC for real-time updates and notices. Long version: The GnuCash "everything" server is getting a little long on the tooth, and to enable some upgraded build tools I plan to upgrade the server from Fedora 25 to Fedora 29. I plan to do this upgrade on Sunday, February 3, 2019, starting somewhere around 12:00 noon US/EST (although my personal schedule might push that back, hense the long maintenance window). I've upgraded a few systems from F25 -> F29 already, some of them upgraded in an hour, one system took over 4 hours. Code has lots of services so I expect it will take a long time to upgrade and verify that everything is working. During the upgrade window code will be unavailable, and the services running on code will be unavailable. I will stay on IRC during the upgrade to make real-time announcements. Please let me know if this time frame does not work for you.
