652207 - Restart devmo

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

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

Description

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

We need to pick up a config change to turn back off the emailed notifications, which appear to be going out to people for no reason and in great numbers, resulting in some people getting spammed mightily.

spamming hundreds (possibly thousands) of people is bad.  can we please try to kick the server asap?

hopefully this is simple enough for whoever is on-call to take care of.  if it's more involved, please let us know.  thanks!

What exactly are you looking for here? Just a restart of the dekiwiki service, or a full server reboot? Any config changes we need to make?

I don't think we need to make any config changes.  And not sure if a service restart or full reboot is required.

oremj would probably know.

oremj:  what do we usually need to do for deki admin changes like this to take effect?

Just a wiki restart. No reboot needed.
