Description

TODO

Release Preparation

MirrorManager should automatically detect the new release version, and will create a new Version() object in the database. This is visible on the Version page in the web UI, and on mirrors.fp.o.

If the versioning scheme changes, it's possible this will fail. If so, contact the Mirror Wrangler.

Troubleshooting and Resolution

Regenerating the Publiclist

On bapp1:

sudo su - mirrormanager

then

/usr/share/mirrormanager/server/update-mirrorlist-server > /tmp/mirrormanager-mirrorlist.log 2>&1 && \
/usr/share/mirrormanager/mm_sync_out

To make this take effect immediately, you may need to remove the cache on the proxies:

# As root on proxy[1-3]
rm -rf /srv/cache/mod_cache/*

Hung admin.fedoraproject.org/mirrormanager

This generally happens when an app server loses connection to db2.

1. on bapp1 and app[1-6], su up, and restart apache.
2. on bapp1, if crawlers and update-master-directory-list are likewise hung, kill them too. You may need to delete stale /var/lock/mirrormanager/* lockfiles as well.
