Hi all, I have upped the disk quota on our Openshift gear to 10GBas a temporary measure to give us some breathing room for the website. I also now have a migration plan for minimal downtime for the server, which consists of: * Install a MySQL cartridge on a separate gear in the OpenShift account * Ensure the database is using separate files per table * Put wiki in maintenance mode to ensure no writes * Migrate the database from our current node to the new one * Update the mediawiki cartridge to use the 2nd host as the MySQL server * Take wiki out of maintenance mode At that point, the current bloated database can be dropped and potentially recreated as a slave to the other one, with separate files per table. Does this approach sound tenable? I'm no system administrator.
