Hi,

good old tin.eqiad.wmnet was out of warranty and running jessie,
so as part of our hardware refresh goal it had to be replaced by something new.

We now have deploy1001.eqiad.wmnet  and it's running on stretch with PHP7
and we just switched deployment servers and Mukunda is running the first deploy from it as we speak.

<+logmsgbot> !log twentyafterfour@deploy1001 Started scap: Deploy 1.31.0-wmf.27 to test wikis


Here are the related puppet changes that switched it and added stretch support:

Additionally mwscript needed a way to detect php5 or php7, for that see:

There are also more details on today's SAL and on:
