AWS gp2 -> gp3
by Miroslav Suchý
tl;dr I want to change **all** storage types in AWS from gp2 to gp3 next week.
The recent Change proposal
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/CloudEC2gp3
brought to my attention that gp3 is actually faster and cheaper than gp2. The comparision is as follows:
gp2:
* $0.10 per GB-month
* IOPS: 100 IOPB, burstable to 3000 IOPS
* Throughput: Throughput limit is between 128 MiB/s and 250 MiB/s, depending on the volume size.
gp3:
* IOPS: 3000 for free, addional IOPS can be bought
* Throughput 125 MiB/s for free, addional throughput can be bought
For more information see
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/storage/migrate-your-amazon-ebs-volumes-from...
We have about 150 volumes of gp2 type in AWS. Copr is the most prominent user, but there are other: libravatar, taiga,
TF, and other...
The type of the storage can be changed on the fly - even for attached and volumes in-use. I already tried that with my
private server. Unless somebody will have objections I plan to change volume types to gp3 for Copr next week and for all
other services in week following Easter.
I also modified fedimg template to allow gp3

If you have scripts outside of fedora-infra/ansible to provision instances that uses gp2 for volumes, it will be great
if you can move it to gp3.

file-max on Fedora 38
by Emmanuel Gelati
Hello,
Sorry, I don't know if it's the correct place to ask, My laptop I have
installed Fedora 18 and I see the sysctl file-max parameter has a very high
value:
sysctl -a | grep file
fs.file-max = 9223372036854775807
fs.file-nr = 19808 0 9223372036854775807
Thanks
