Afternoon Everyone,
Thought I'd give everyone a quick heads up, that since Kernel Summit
starts on the 1st of November, which means I've got my one chance to do
system maintenance on master / hera for the year.
I'm expecting to do the upgrade on the 1st itself, likely start time
will be around Mon Nov 1 19:00:00 UTC 2010, and I'm hoping for the
entire downtime to take no longer than 2 hours.
Things that are going to happen during the upgrade:
- OS getting upgraded to Fedora 13
w/ custom kernel to solve XFS and disable IMA
- Hardware change
Google and HP have been very generous enough to
get us a new machine for the master / hera machine.
The new machine is a dual, quad core Xeon X5550 box
with 32G of ram. Beyond that it nearly identical to the
current machine.
The current machine will become a 'live' backup machine
that will sync semi-continuously, and be available
should catastrophic failure of master / hera occur.
Think that's the main big changes. I'm already working on the upgrade
since I have multiple boxes to do this with, and things are looking good
so far.
As a note the start time is estimated, if there is a major change to the
start time I will let everyone know.
As always, if you have questions, comments or concerns please e-mail me
or ftpadmin@kernel.org
