TLDR: The backend server used for
releases.wikimedia.org has moved.
use bromine.eqiad.wmnet instead of caesium.eqiad.wmnet
Do i care? You do if you are a "releaser" in one of the admin groups
who upload files to
releases.wm.org.
Hi,
the backend of
releases.wm.org has moved away from caesium.eqiad.wmnet over
to bromine.eqiad.wmnet. The reason was to get rid of yet another outdated
Ubuntu system and replace it with a Debian jessie system.
All the releases files in /srv/org and your /home directories have been
copied over,
everything should be like before, just use the new server name please.
The task for that was
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T124261
While on it i made the directory index page look a bit nicer and sort
files differently so that new release versions are on top.
The details for that were in
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T125164
Let me know if you see any issues,
Best, Daniel
