Hello all,
on Sunday at 20 o'clock UTC I will update several packages on nightshade. This
will include perl, python and java. The details can be found at [1]. If you
think, that one of the updates can or will break one of your tools, please
open a jira-bug-report and link it and I will see if I can exclude the package
for some time.
Sinclery,
DaB.

Hi,
cassia, the SQL server for sql-s[346], is currently offline. Load for these
clusters is being served by hyacinth (sql-s[346]-fast), but user databases are
not available. We are investigating the issue with cassia, but it will
probably need to be reimported, which might take 2-3 days.

Hi,
I am about to remove hyacinth (sql-s[346]-fast) from rotation for some internal
testing. It will return to service in the testing configuration in a day or
two.
In the mean time, cassia (the non-fast server) will continue to serve these
clusters, but there will be no redundancy in case of failure.

Hi,
Some time after next Friday (16th), we will change the default Perl version
(that is, /usr/bin/perl) on the Solaris login servers and web servers from
5.10.1 to 5.12.1. This should not require any changes from users; however, you
might want to test your tools with /usr/bin/perl5.12.
After the change, /usr/bin/perl5.10 will be available for a short period, but
will then be removed. If you have a problem with Perl 5.12, rather than
changing your tools to use /usr/bin/perl5.10, file a request in JIRA.

Hi,
Earlier today there was a power failure at one of Wikimedia's facilities in
Tampa which affected the master database servers that we replicate from. This
caused an interruption in replication for a couple of hours (but no changes
were being processed during most of that time).
This also caused a short outage of the web services (JIRA, MediaWiki and
FishEye) which are hosted in that facility.
The problem is now fixed and replication is running normally; however, due to
the nature of the failure, there may be inconsistencies in the database between
the master and replicated copies. Please report this in JIRA if you notice any
problems.

Hi,
EvoSwitch have informed us that there will be a further power outage tomorrow
(July 2) at 03:00 UTC to permanently resolve the cause of the previous outage.
The only affected server (damiana) is currently not hosting any services, so
there should be no impact to users from this outage.
