** [http://specs.openstack.org/openstack-infra/infra-specs/specs/update-config-management.html Update Config Management]
*** topic:update-cfg-mgmt
*** Zuul as CD engine
** OpenDev
*** Gerrit account and group inconsistencies
**** https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/gerrit-user-consistency-2021 High level notes.
**** Group problems and 92 accounts with preferred emails missing external ids have been fixed.
**** We have 17 accounts with preferred email addresses that don't have a matching external id
**** We have ~642 accounts with conflicting emails in their external ids. This needs more investigating to better understand the fix for.
**** Need to correct the ~642 external id issues before we can push updates to refs/meta/external-ids with Gerrit online.
**** Workaround is we can stop Gerrit, push to external ids directly, reindex accounts (and groups?), start gerrit, then clear accounts caches (and groups caches?)
**** Next steps
***** Classify users further into situation groups
***** Decide on next steps for users depending on their situation group.
***** Fix the preferred email issue if possible as this can be done with gerrit online
***** Start a refs/meta/external-ids checkout in a shared location and begin committing fixes to it. If we can't push all the fixes as separate commits we can squash them together and then push.
***** Fungi suggests we simply identify the active accounts then retire the rest for simplicity and speed. Clarkb likes this idea.
***** Could really use a second or third set of eyes to review my notes and decisions. Will help ensure that the next steps I've described for specific accounts are good.
*** Configuration tuning
**** Using strong refs for jgit caches
**** Batch user groups and threads
*** Gitea OOMs
**** https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/774023 Rate limiting framework change for haproxy.
**** https://review.opendev.org/c/opendev/system-config/+/775051 Dstat stat gathering in our system-config-run jobs to measure relative performance impacts.
