Planned outage for Fedora Account System 2021-03-24 10:30UTC
by Mark O'Brien
All,
Last week there was an announcement sent on the planned outage due to the
migration to the new Fedora Account System. Unfortunately, we made an error
in the starting date when writing the announcement.
We intend to start the outage on Wednesday 2021-03-24 10:30UTC which will
last for approximately two days. Having the outage on a Wednesday and
Thursday allows an extra working day before the weekend to address any
issues should they arise.
We know this is not ideal and apologize for the short notice of this
correction.
This outage has been planned to migrate systems with as little interruption
as possible to services for users. During this 'outage' time, you may
experience a sudden 'user unknown' scenario. In this case, please try to
re-authenticate into the service after an hour.
If this change causes a major issue please contact us as soon as possible
to let us try to address the situation in advance of the outage.
We had always planned for this outage to be on Wednesday and Thursday, but
misread our own calendar when sending the earlier announcement.
For details on how this effects you please see this mail
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel-announce@lists.fedora...
Apologies,
The Fedora Account System team

releng apps and scripting and the like.
He's proved his dedication, trustworthiness, and ability.

Postgresql server in aws.f.o
by Miroslav Suchý
Hi.
In Copr we use postgresql on copr-frontend. I decide that it is time to split it off to separate server. I am going to
create new machine in AWS and deploy postgresql there. I have several open questions:
* is there interest in having it as general sql server in AWS datacenter for some other fedora-infra projects? Or
should I not bother about it and just keep it for Copr?
* I plan to reuse roles/postgresql_server for that - any issue with this?
* if the server will be open for other Fedora project (first question) should I amend
playbooks/groups/postgresql-server.yml or should I rather create new playbook?
* I would love to run the server on RHEL 8. That should be completely fine according to
https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/extending-no-cost-red-hat-enterprise-linux...
do we have stored somewhere role or credentials which configure subscription-manager?
* I plan to use arm64 for that server - mostly because I can and it can be fun :) (and it is a bit cheaper) - any
issue with this?
