svn.apache.org down, fyi

[Theo Van Dinter <fe...@apache.org>]

If you haven't already noticed, the main webserver for apache.org
(including svn.apache.org) is down at the moment.  Folks in #asfinfra
are working on it, moving the services to other servers, so I'd expect
things to be down for a while longer.

Since svn ended up not moving to helios I turned all this stuff back on. :)

(of course you know there was a mail yesterday, you were responding to it...
/me needs to wake up more before responding to mails in the inbox)

Updates for 3.2, which no one uses, yes.

The choices were:

- Have all zones (or at least ours) shut off completely so that helios could
  focus on serving up svn after the minotaur explosion.

- Disable jobs that aren't completely necessary and/or are resource intensive,
  thereby freeing up resources for svn.


I decided that keeping the critical jobs on the zone running (dns, httpd (so
people can get the 3.1 updates), rsync, etc,) was important.

I did send out some mails about this yesterday, so I'm not sure why
there's a huge surprise now.  It's temporary folks, until minotaur
(or a new more permanent home for svn and such) is dealt with.

Oh, related to this...  The current plan has svn moving to helios, which
houses the zones.  In an attempt to help with this, and not having people just
shut zones off to shed load, I disabled a bunch of our stuff since we're the
(likely) most resource intensive zone that runs there.  What I did:

service bbmass stopped
service buildbot stopped
service freqsd stopped

bbmass cron disabled
updatesd cron disabled
automc cron disabled
