Attendees: hexa, vcunat, Julien (partially), Eelco
Round table
- Julien
- currently otherwise occupied
- wants to finish the Lime survey migration away from AWS EC2 to non-critical infra
- vcunat
- Full disk on Haumea
- Checking on tarball mirroring service
- wasn't working for the last two weeks, we failed to notice
- issue in nixpkgs caused breakdown
- tending to the script and will merge the fixed version back
- hexa
- Haumea's backup location
- Super write-intensive
- Return to rsync.net
- tried updating delft/* to 24.05 but hydra wouldn't compile
- Eelco
- Interested in the cost-increase on the release bucket
- March 6xxx USD
- April 9700 USD
- May 8200 USD
- Still increasing as of June
- Need to move forward with the S3 Bucket (Cache & Releases)
- Move data into Glacier, would be cheaper there, but not accessible from cache.nixos.org anymore
- Moving things out of Glacier expensive, cheaper when we batch requests and request them for the next day or so
- Plan to move to Tigris data, they would give us a discount, and egress is currently free
- Need to get the relevant people in a room to make a final decision
- Eelco
- Edef
- Jonas
- Infra Build (hexa, vcunat)
Action items
- Check Prometheus Alerting Pipeline, no Alerts since May 21
- File issue about hydra/nix build failures
- Schedule call about S3 bucket decision with Eelco, Jonas, Infra-Build
Full disk on haumea
- The ZFS pool (1 TB) on Haumea has been running full in the last few days, leading to the PostgreSQL database to be unavailable
Multiple options
- Reducing number and frequency of snapshots
- 3x5m, 4x15m, 24x1h, 4x1d, 3x1w
- [vcunat] 5 minutes probably excessive
- Replace haumea with a machine with bigger disks
- AX101 ~100 EUR/Mo
- Long-term maybe prune Hydras database
- or set up a new database and copy only the config over
Spend some more time debugging the situation, if it doesn't work out go for a bigger machine
Acquire rsync.net account for database backups of haumea
- Previously rsync.net, but Account was paid by Graham. He eventually deleted that account
- Currently only backup location is on hexa's NAS at home
- Backup size is currently 1.7TiB
- At 1.2 Cents per GB/Month that would cost ~24 USD/Month for 2TiB
E-Mail Alias Management
- Rok would like access, so that he can switch around the alias on the streamyard account that the Marketing team uses
- Resource currently managed by Infra-Build
- Not enough opinions, discuss in internal infra room instead
