I completed the server migration this morning. Here are items to note. Please send me email if you find any anomalies or abnormalities.<div><br></div><div>To all:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://lists.openfabrics.org">lists.openfabrics.org</a>, <a href="http://www.openfabrics.org">www.openfabrics.org</a> should function as before. </div>
<div><br></div><div>There is a new direct subdomain to the downloads: <a href="http://downloads.openfabrics.org">downloads.openfabrics.org</a><br><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Please check the following:</div><div><br>
</div><div>Send yourself email through your openfabrics account, if you're forwarding mail from <a href="http://openfabrics.org">openfabrics.org</a> to another account. If you use an <a href="http://openfabrics.org">openfabrics.org</a> email account directly, please check you can get your email. If you want to use an <a href="http://openfabrics.org">openfabrics.org</a> email account, you now can access it with your imap client using your login and password for your existing account and <a href="http://lists.openfabrics.org">lists.openfabrics.org</a> as the server.<br>
<div><br></div><div>Developers:</div><div><br></div><div>The new server is <a href="http://beany.openfabrics.org">beany.openfabrics.org</a>. Your username and passwd should be the same as on sofa. </div><div><br></div><div>
I rsync'd all /home dirs to the new server on Saturday (5/27). Please verify your files on beany are up to date. If not, please update your files. Sofa will remain online for about another month. The week before I de-commission sofa, I'll notify all users. And again the day before. Please make sure all your files are moved to beany.</div>
<div><br></div><div>If you had cron jobs you ran, you should check that they're set up and running as intended. I did not set up or get into any of your /home files. I only copied them.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://git.openfabrics.org">git.openfabrics.org</a> should function as before.</div>
<div><br></div><div>SVN users:</div><div><br></div><div>The svn repos should be operating as before. I dumped and loaded all databases as of Sunday morning (5/28). This is now the active repository. If you use svn:// protocol with your client, you need to change your address to the following</div>
<div><br></div><div>svn://<a href="http://beany.openfabrics.org/ofw">beany.openfabrics.org/ofw</a> (for windows)</div><div>svn://<a href="http://beany.openfabrics.org/nvmewin">beany.openfabrics.org/nvmewin</a> (for NVMe)</div>
<div><br></div><div>If you use http:// protocol, the address is still <a href="http://www.openfabrics.org/svnrepo/nvmewin">http://www.openfabrics.org/svnrepo/nvmewin</a> (or ofw)</div><div><br></div><div>Again, please do not use <a href="http://sofa.openfabrics.org/svnrepo/xxx">sofa.openfabrics.org/svnrepo/xxx</a> for your repositories. Your trees will be out of date if you do.</div>
<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>General:</div><div><br></div><div>Why all this work to migrate to a new server?</div><div><br></div><div>The sofa /home and /var directories were getting full. There was only about 3% left in /home. </div>
<div><br></div><div>The new server gives us more disk space (a full TB instead of 700GB). </div><div><br></div><div>Offsite storage for files. I was concerned about disaster recovery in the event of a meltdown at the hosting facility.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Other than that, the hardware is about the same.</div><div><br></div><div>We're saving about $120/month for more space. </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Again, please send me email if you see anything abnormal.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks.</div><div><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><br><div><br></div><div><b><font size="4">Ken Strandberg</font></b></div><div><font size="4"><i>Webmanager/SysAdmin</i></font></div><div><i><b>OpenFabrics Alliance</b></i></div>
