Complete migration of all application servers from Fedora to Ubuntu
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Once External Storage migration has been resolved, we'll want to complete the transition of all application servers from Fedora to our consistent Ubuntu configuration.

Note that resolution of bug 9204 (%2F in URL always returns 404 result) is dependent on some tweak to Apache 2, so requires retiring the remaining Fedora boxes which run Apache 1.


Version: unspecified
Severity: enhancement

Folks are still currently working on getting the External Stores moved over to the dedicated hosts. I am just commenting on this ticket as an update. As soon as the dedicated ES host is finished with installation, testing, and deployment, this ticket will be escalated. (No one wants FC out of the DC more than I do. I want standardization! ;)

Just checking to see if I’ve got a handle on how the {{val}} bug works. I did a check just now, and {val} returned four instances of accuracy to only 12 digits out of 54 tries. From this, I deduce that about 8% of the servers are still old and haven’t been updated. Is that approximately correct?

Newer boxes are faster, thus handle more hits, and will thus be overrepresented in a sample of this sort.

All currently deployed and pooled/in service apache servers are now Ubuntu. Still working on getting rid of the rest.

Rob says that all deployed servers work now under Ubuntu. Can we consider this as fixed?

browne seems to be our last fedora box

application servers = apache servers = no more fedora for awhile. shame on me for not closing this sooner.

yes, browne is still online, but its not an app server (and another host is slated for replacing it already)
