[arch-devops] Doing an svnadmin dump/load for svn-{packages, community}?
by Evangelos Foutras 31 May '21

31 May '21

Our svn repos have become larger than necessary over the years. It appears that a dump/load can significantly reduce their disk footprint (possibly also improve performance slightly): $ du -sh /srv/repos/svn-*/svn svn-* 19G /srv/repos/svn-community/svn 27G /srv/repos/svn-packages/svn 2.6G svn-community 1.2G svn-packages I'm tempted to replace the live svn repos with a dump/load copy sometime next week. It would require halting repository access (and new commits) for about two hours. If anyone has concerns over this or knows of possible caveats (besides copying over the post-commit hook), please reply. :)

Hey everyone, as Kristian has proven himself to be hard-working and reliable, the DevOps team has decided to promote him to full DevOps with all responsibilities and privileges that come with that. He's been a Junior DevOps for 2 months but has been consistently contributing for way longer than that. Welcome onboard, Kristian. Let's break Arch together. Cheers, Sven and the DevOps rascals

Hi All, This Thursday we have another DevOps meeting, the last couple of weeks we have deployed Loki on our servers so we have centralized logging now! Our Matrix server now supports SSO, meaning all our Staff can make use of it! (unsure if this is 100% documented). Alertmanager notifications are now send to Gitlab and our now viewable for DevOps here [1]. The agenda for Thursday: [2] * Rate limitting in nginx * DNS / network * The killing of git.archlinux.org (PG-13) [1] https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/infrastructure/-/alert_management [2] https://md.archlinux.org/GM_lKe2xTe6XmO3N8FmMFA Greetings, Jelle van der Waa

[arch-devops] Junior DevOps application - Kristian Klausen
by Kristian Klausen 28 Mar '21

28 Mar '21

Hi My name is Kristian Klausen (known as klausenbusk on most platforms). I'm currently taking a break from studying and is currently working part-time as a Linux sysadmin/developer and enjoying life. I have been running Arch Linux since late 2012 and ran Ubuntu and Debian before that. Since then I have been contributing to different open-source projects[1][2], often as drive-by patches, and I maintain my own little open-source project flathub-stats[3]. At work I have been installing and maintaining the Debian infrastructure and digital signage solution (also Debian) since ~2015, as part of that I also backported a few Debian packages in ~2016[4][5]. We also use k8s (kubeadm on Debian servers), Docker, GitLab CI, PHP, shell scripting and I got a lot of my experience from that job. My more direct involvement with Arch started in late July 2020 when I joined #archlinux-devops and "complained" about something and svenstaro then decided to create a GitLab account for me[6]. Since then I have been contributing to the infrastructure project[7], often mail, Keycloak or terraform related changes. In the same period I also contributed to the arch-boxes project[8] and basically refactored/rewrote a big chunk of it. I don't have a lot of reasons why I contribute to open-source, basically it is fun and I enjoy contributing (and often I need the feature/issue fixed). The same applies for my arch contributions, but it wasn't just a single "drive-by patch" this time, which is probably due to the community factor and that I find infrastructure work interesting. If I become a Junior DevOps I hope I can ease the burden on the existing team, by being able to work on issues which requires some kind of access[9] and help with day-to-day maintenance. Among other things, I hope to help with the mail related stuff[10](I have been running my own mail server on Arch for a few years) and just general infrastructure stuff (nginx, monitoring, networking, you name it).
