579643 - Need an hour of downtime to move some backend servers around

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Aravind Gottipati [:aravind]]

I would like to move the varnish caching server to a different box (with a lot more RAM) and also move the try repo server to a different box.  These moves should help with the varnish server performance in general.  I estimate an hour of downtime for all of this.  During this time, hgweb (http(s)://hg.mozilla.org and https://hgpvt.mozilla.org will be down for an hour.

Please let me know when I can do this.

To be clear: this is RESO FIXED because the request of the bug (scheduling downtime) is completed -- the work itself will be completed tomorrow.

The downtime has been scheduled for 8am - 11am PDT tomorrow (20july). 

Talked with aravind in irc. He clarified this bug was to track asking *when* the downtime was scheduled, and also to track *what* to do during the downtime. Reopening and assigning back to him.

"what to do during downtime" is:
1) move tryserver repo server to a different machine
2) move the hg.m.o caching server to a different machine
