[Wikitech-l] Operations team announcements: Ryan and Leslie
Hello! I'm extremely pleased to announce that we've had two promotions within the Technical Operations team! Leslie Carr has been promoted to Senior Operations Engineer (Networking). As many of you know, along with Mark, Leslie has been instrumental in securing preferred rates and contracts with with connectivity providers and vendors on the networking side of our infrastructure - in a world where human connections are every bit as important as topographic ones, Leslie has maintained a vast network of contacts to help ensure that we're receiving competitive pricing, fair peering, and a plethora of other perks that come part and parcel with maintaining solid relationships in the networking arena, while also taking point on many of the technical aspects of our network infrastructure as well. We're lucky to have her, and I look forward to working with her as the team completes the setup of ULSFO and begins work on our next data-centre project. Ryan Lane has also been promoted to Senior Operations Engineer. Ryan has served as the lead on the Labs project, a component of our infrastructure that has become increasingly critical to projects both within WMF engineering (with Beta Labs), as well as with various volunteer projects (via Tool Labs). Ryan is about to head up the migration of this infrastructure from Tampa to Ashburn as part of our plan to sunset the Tampa data-centre. Additionally, Ryan has also played a key role in several non-labs-related projects, including most recently our HTTPS-as-default project, as well as work on integrating git-deploy into the mediawiki deployment pipeline. Ryan's work has been invaluable, and this promotion well-deserved. Thanks! --Ken. ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
Re: [Wikitech-l] [IRC] wm-bot semi outage
not that it would actually worked better :P I would be most happy to switch to local /dev/vdb storage which never had any problems, but for that wm-bot would need to be on own project On Tue, Oct 15, 2013 at 6:46 PM, Ryan Lane rlan...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Oct 15, 2013 at 9:15 AM, Petr Bena benap...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, because of this bug: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55690 wm-bot is unable to write logs to file storage. Unfortunatelly since 10 minutes ago, the mysql storage broke as well, I have no idea why but I am afraid that only fix that comes to my mind now involves bot restart which isn't possible because all logs that couldn't be written are cached in operating memory (so if I restarted wm-bot we would loose 2 - 3 days of logs of all channels that are in RAM now). So, if someone wondered what is up with public channel logging, this is a reason why there are logs missing, not only on file storage at bots.wmflabs.org/~wm-bot/logs but also sql at http://tools.wmflabs.org/wm-bot/logs/ I hope wmf will soon start selling I love gluster t-shirts :-) I would get one It's possible to switch to NFS, you know ;). - Ryan ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l ___ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l

Re: [Wikitech-l] Tarballs of all 2004-2012 Commons files now available at archive.org
Hoi, Deleted files AFTER the creation of the tarballs were created will always be part of the tarball. If you create logic that works on these archives, it is likely that they will also work on the live data at Commons... MY QUESTION... Yes, it is good to have a backup somewhere.

I have two questions though: 1. What happens to files deleted after your crawler retrieved them? I suppose they will still be available in the archives. 2.
