Fedorahosted.org sunset reminder: 2017-02-28
by Kevin Fenzi 12 Jan '17

12 Jan '17

(This is a resend reminder, with some additional faq information) Greetings. Fedora Infrastructure currently maintains two sites for general open source code hosting: fedorahosted.org and pagure.io. Fedorahosted.org was established in late 2007 using Trac for issues and wiki pages, Fedora Account System groups for access control and source uploads, and offering a variety of Source Control Management tools (git, svn, hg, bzr). With the rise of new workflows and source repositories fedorahosted.org has ceased to grow, adding just one new project this year and a handful the year before. Pagure.io was established in 2015, and is a modern Flask/Python based application. It is under rapid development and supports git repos for source code, docs, and tickets. The pull request model is used for changes along with many options for projects. Access control is standalone. New projects are self service and added all the time. Given the lack of growth and continued maintenance burden, Fedora Infrastructure would like to retire fedorahosted.org and encourage all its active projects to move to pagure.io (or whatever other place they feel best meets their needs). We have tenatively scheduled this retirement for February 28th, 2017. The Infrastructure team has already contacted owners of the top ten projects on Fedora Hosted for input on their needs. If your project has special needs, please contact the Infrastructure team (details below) to discuss options. After the sunset date, we will continue to provide raw data from public projects previously hosted at fedorahosted.org, but the service itself will be closed. We hope to provide this data for download for a few years, but won't provide it forever. A quick FAQ: Question: pagure.io has some issues/problems that prevent me from moving my project there. What can I do? Answer: Please file these issues against pagure: https://pagure.io/pagure/issues/ and we will try and address them as best we can. Note that not every feature request can be accommodated but the team will consider all requests. Question: How can I migrate my data from fedorahosted to pagure.io? Answer: You can use the https://pagure.io/pagure-importer tool to migrate trac data to pagure.io issues. Git repositories should be easily migrated with a push to the new pagure.io repo. Releases can be uploaded to pagure.io. There is also available a copr repo with the latest version of the importer tool: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/cverna/pagure-importer/ Question: I want to test things out, but not migrate yet, how can I do that? Answer: We have a https://stg.pagure.io/ test instance you are welcome to create projects on and test importing data. Note that from time to time we clear out this instance, so do not use it for any long term use. Question: What happens if I ignore this/don't get around to migrating my project by the 2017-02-28 deadline? Answer: We hope to provide the raw data from projects for download for a while, so you should be able to download a tar.xz of your old git repo and trac files, but it will be up to you to extract what you need from them, and we won't host them forever. The data sunset period would be at least several additional months. Question: Does pagure.io support hg, bzr, svn or cvs? Answer: no. Question: I have a mailing list at lists.fedorahosted.org, what happens to that? Answer: We have no plans to retire lists.fedorahosted.org at this time. All lists and archives will keep functioning. We hope soon to have a lists.pagure.io domain available and projects that wish to migrate can do so if they choose. Question: I have more questions, where can I get more answers? Answer: Feel free to ask on the infrastructure(a)lists.fedoraproject.org list or #fedora-admin on IRC Thanks, kevin

Migration of the mailing-lists to Mailman3 and HyperKitty
by Aurelien Bompard 10 Nov '15

10 Nov '15

Dear list users, The Fedora Engineering team has been working on a new system for our mailing lists. Mailman 3 came out earlier this year and it has a new shiny web UI: HyperKitty. The Fedora Hosted lists will be migrated on November 16th, and the Fedora project lists later in the week. After migration you should be able to use the new hyperkitty UI to post and read the lists if you choose or continue to get emails in the traditional way. There may be some changes in some headers, so if you filter your list emails be ready to adjust your filters. See wiki page below for details: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailman3_Migration Some lists using mailman2 features not yet available in mailman3 will be migrated later. More information as well as current lists migrated, being migrated and deferred for migration can be found at: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailman3_Migration/Status If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the infrastructure list: infrastructure(a)lists.fedoraproject.org. If you find a problem or issue, please file a fedora infrastructure ticket and we will work to fix things for your case or bug: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ The Fedora Infrastructure team

Outage: fedorahosted.org - 2013-04-26 19:00 UTC There will be an outage starting at 2013-04-26 19:00 UTC, which will last approximately 3 hours. To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto or run: date -d '2013-04-26 19:00 UTC' Reason for outage: We are moving fedorahosted.org to another datacenter to allow for additional resources to be allocated to it. This should help decrease load times and increase general availability. In addition, we are going to also switch all trac projects to use fedora- openid instead of a direct connection for authentication.

Recent performance and trac issues
by Kevin Fenzi 20 Mar '13

20 Mar '13

Greetings. Some of you may have noticed performance issues with slow git clones or pushes or trac pages loading slowly recently. On 2013-03-18 we found that our glusterfs replication was not working as expected and attempted to correct it. Unfortunately the cluster was not able to both replicate everything to catch up and also serve requests. We have disabled replication again, but load remains at unacceptable levels. Note that these performance issues should not result in any data loss. We are planning the following steps to alleviate / solve the issues: 1. In the next week, there will be an outage while we reconfigure storage to increase performance. Hopefully after this change load issues will be alleviated. An outage notification will be sent to this list when we have the outage scheduled. 2. We are busy planning a fedorahosted version2 setup that splits out projects to separate instances and allows much better scaling ability. Once we have a plan in place, we will ask projects if they wish to migrate to the new setup and help us test any issues. We apologize for issues anyone has run into in the last few days. Rest assured we are working on it. kevin

2 new trac plugins on fedorahosted.org
by Kevin Fenzi 06 Feb '13

06 Feb '13

Greetings. We have recently added two new trac plugins to fedorahosted.org: 1. The trac-sensitivetickets-plugin. http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/SensitiveTicketsPlugin This allows you to have a 'sensitive' checkbox on tickets, allowing you to hide these tickets from your regular reports or the like, but still be able to uncheck later and have all the ticket information public if you like. Please feel free to file a ticket with us to enable this plugin on your instance if you wish to use it. 2. The trac-CGit-plugin http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/TracCgitPlugin This plugin redirects users to our cgit setup instead of using the slow trac browser for source code viewing. Any projects that have just 1 git repo we have enabled this plugin already. If you have multiple git repos or don't use git, we have left the trac browser in place. You are of course welcome and able to enable/disable this from the admin interface. This change also means that trac no longer needs to sync the browser on every page load. This results in an up to 50% speed up in page loads for trac tickets/reports. As always feel free to contact the Fedora Infrastructure team via the infrastructure list: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/infrastructure or via a ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/newticket Thanks, kevin

Planned Outage: fedorahosted.org services - 2012-08-21 21:00UTC
by Kevin Fenzi 15 Aug '12

15 Aug '12

Outage: fedorahosted.org services - 2012-08-21 21:00UTC There will be an outage starting at 2012-08-21 21:00UTC, which will last approximately 3 hours. To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto or run: date -d '2012-08-21 21:00UTC' Reason for outage: We will be moving fedorahosted.org from the single instance it's now on to a pair of machines using a glusterfs backend. Both nodes in the new configuration will be live and handling traffic, spreading load to each. Additionally, one node can service all requests if the other node is down or being rebooted. This will decrease load and increase availability. Note that fedorahosted lists will not be affected by this move.

Outage: fedorahosted.org outage - 2012-08-04 20:40 UTC
by Kevin Fenzi 04 Aug '12

04 Aug '12

Outage: fedorahosted.org outage - 2012-08-04 20:40 UTC There was an outage starting at 2012-08-04 20:40 UTC, which will lasted approximately 1 hour. Services were fully restored at 2012-08-04 22:03 UTC To convert UTC to your local time, take a look at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto or run: date -d '2012-08-04 20:40 UTC' Reason for outage: The fedorahosted.org server hit an OOM condition and locked up. Service was restored after a power cycle of the instance. In the next few weeks we will be moving this service to a pair of redundant servers which should reduce the chance of this having any impact.
