May is for Maintenance

Friday, May 25th at around 10:30am PDT we're going to begin performing maintenance on some of our servers. For a few hours you may notice some oddness or unavailability. We'll post here with any updates and when we're done.



Update:

Maintenance is over, it went off without a hitch. RAM upgraded, bad disks replaced.

subversion sidegrade

You may have noticed we had about two hours of subversion downtime tonight on svn.perl.org. You shouldn't (we hope!) notice anything different, but we've converted our repositories from the BerkeleyDB backing store to FSFS. (Design Doc). BDB has served us well with no major issues for years, but it was time to change.
