Hi: I should have sent these to the announce@ and users@ mailing lists, just in case there are wiki editors on those lists who are not reading arch@ (which is ideally the central all-contributors mailing list.) We'll adjust the Infra team methods in the future to send outage announcements to all these lists for maximum coverage. Below are details of this outage, which began 30 minutes ago. The wiki is in readonly mode until it is migrated fully to OpenShift. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Outage :: wiki and www :: 2100 to 0100 UTC Thu 29 Nov/Fri 30 Nov Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2012 22:48:03 -0800 From: Karsten 'quaid' Wade <kwade@redhat.com> Organization: Red Hat To: <arch@ovirt.org> <arch@ovirt.org> CC: infra <infra@ovirt.org> We are having a four-hour freeze and short outage of the wiki and www portions of ovirt.org to migrate to OpenShift. 2100 UTC Thu 29 Nov to 0100 UTC Fri 30 Nov date -d '2100 UTC Thu Nov 29' We are targeting the DNS switch to happen at 2359 UTC Thu 29 Nov. This migration includes updating to a new theme for the site. We expect there to be no downtime for access to content on the website. During the four-hour window we'll be working to make sure URLs linking in to the old content forward directly to the new website. The freeze on the wiki is expected to complete on or before the four-hour mark. The new theme and information layout have been presented and discussed, this is just the final portion where we turn the lights on in a new location, and dim the lights in the old. Any questions, concerns, ideas, etc. just let us know. We'll do a final minute reminder via email and IRC when the outage window starts. Status updates will also by via email and IRC, as arisen. == Affected services == www.ovirt.org wiki.ovirt.org ovirt.org/releases ovirt.org/meetings ovirt.org/stats == Future considerations == If we had a strict infrastructure change management process, we would have coordinated better with the rest of the contributor teams to be sure this work didn't interrupt their workflow. -- Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Analyst - Community Growth http://TheOpenSourceWay.org .^\ http://community.redhat.com @quaid (identi.ca/twitter/IRC) \v' gpg: AD0E0C41
