Hi,

Tomorrow, April 10, 2020, the OpenDev team will be performing minor updates to two services.

* Gerrit restart for https://review.opendev.org/ at 16:00 UTC.

This should be a momentary outage to restart the service in a container.

We will maintain the same version in the same configuration; this is a preparatory step in order to perform future version upgrades more easily.

Other than a short outage of about a minute, there should be no service impact or visible changes, but since the environment is changing, we wanted to announce this in case any problems are detected.

* Etherpad migration and domain change at 17:00 UTC.

We will migrate the data currently hosted on etherpad.openstack.org to a new server, also running in a container, on etherpad.opendev.org.

We will set up redirects so that on completion of the migration, all etherpad.openstack.org URLs will redirect to the same pages on etherpad.opendev.org. https://etherpad.opendev.org/ will become the new canonical service URL.

This also includes an upgrade to the latest release of Etherpad Lite (1.8.0).

This involves a database migration as well. The service will be unavailable for the duration of this migration (expected to be about 30 minutes).

Please report any issues in #opendev on Freenode or to the service-discuss@lists.opendev.org mailing list.

Note that this message is being sent to service-announce and several other lists. Future announcements of this type will only be sent to service-announce, so please sign up[1] for that list if you haven't already.
