Infra – CentOS Wiki instance migration
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 We have to do some hardware/software maintenance on the machine actually hosting the Wiki service (http://wiki.centos.org). Instead of just taking the wiki instance down during that maintenance, we've decided to relocate it to a temporary host, proceed to maintenance, and then migrate it back to the previous node. Migration is scheduled for Friday October 10th, 11:00 am UTC time. You can convert to local time with $(date -d '2014-10-10 11:00 UTC') Migration will happen in several steps: 1 - we "freeze" the wiki on the actual node, transfer data, update the A record, restore the service on the temporary node (disruption ~ 30min) 2 - we proceed to the needed maintenance on first node (no disruption in service, but no estimated time) 3 - depending on time needed for step [2], and assuming we have no hardware issue, we proceed like step [1], but in reverse (so disruption ~30 minutes again) Thanks for your comprehending and patience. on behalf of the Infra team, - -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | http://www.centos.org gpg key: 56BEC54E | twitter: < at >arrfab -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlQ2g0kACgkQnVkHo1a+xU4flACfc1IjPeHelBntwt4eNTd6SBvM wXAAnAqtOg4Ko4nqd0QVUfX7ZcQevD5K =v15z -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
