786820 - New bouncer cluster

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: WebOps: Other, task, P1)

Description

[Corey Shields [:cshields]]

bouncer on pp-app-dist* needs to be replaced. I won't call it "unmaintainable" in its current state, but it certainly is not up to our standards.  Now that we know it is going to be kept and actively developed, we will build a new adm, dev, stage, prod environment for it that meets our current standards.

The current setup of bouncer stage / download.allizom.org (the PHP public side app) is out of Git (https://github.com/fwenzel/tuxedo/tree/master/bouncer) and should be able to be copied (the directory layout and Apache virtual host config) to the new cluster and also used to get the new dev and prod going

The bounceradmin side, which is a Django app, is going to require a few more steps to copy/setup

The current stage and prod setups are using a virtualenv (which we don't use in production deployments anywhere else) and it only has a https://github.com/fwenzel/tuxedo/blob/master/requirements.txt 

There is currently not a vendor submodule, like our Django/Playdoh apps, and I'm unsure of the level of effort to get the pure python dependencies packaged into a submodule

After reviewing https://etherpad.mozilla.org/bouncer-notes I realize I'd forgotten about the Perl sentry cron job stuff

This part I never did finish getting working in staging, I was focused on just verifying the PHP side worked in bug 750798, so that is an unknown quantity of work, as it's a set of Perl scripts and dependencies that were installed on a RHEL 5.5 box in SJC1, then we P2V'd into a VM in SCL3. I suspect this will take the longest and we may need a little help from :justdave to verify it's working, but all is possible with Mozilla IT

Let me know if I can shed any more light on things, as I did the bouncer stage setup and the migration of im-sentry01 to SCL3

The dev and stage environments are alive and in use.

The new prod environment is completed, but not currently in "production"... need QA/webtools sign-off to do that after some testing.

I think we're done here. Chris, anything left you're still planning to do or can we close this bug out? :)
