[announcement] Downtime on forum.o.o

Hi.

The database(s) behind forum.o.o need to be changed and moved to a new fast
central sql server.

In order to test the changes without disturbing anyone, I have created a
forum "test" where all needed changes will be done during the coming days.

Thursday 22/10 at 1500 UTC, we will begin moving the each single forum
database into the EN database (with separate tables for each forum), and
convert FULLTEXT tables back to myIsam.

This process means 10-30 minutes downtime for each forum.

At 1800 UTC, we will stop all forums for about 2hours while moving the db
to the central sql. We will try to keep the downtime as small as possible.

It is appreciated, if admins test their forums after 2000 UTC. I will be
available on #asfinfra and on mail, to help with any problems.

Please advice forum users.

Taking the experience from translate.a.o and wiki.o.o a better performance
and higher stability can be expected.

on behalf of infra
jan I.

    Thank you for the hard work.  I returned home a little later.
Although I was on-line and seeing your work, I was actually unpacking
and cleaning from my trip.  Sorry I cannot actually help.  The websites
work fine now.

    Besides, your MySQL clean-up caused some problems on the server dpkg
package system.  I fixed them last night.  It works fine now.

Hi

I am pleased to announce that all forum dbs are now moved to the central
sql server.

The move took about 40 minutes.

We hope you will all experience a better performance, however the php2bb
could really do with a optimization (especially with sqlconnections).
