Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2017-10-18T14:03:36Z] <chasemp> bump up quota on cyberpower cloud project per T178332

I have now spawned a large instance named "cyberbot-db-01". Thank you for the increase.

@Cyberpower678 Can you provide any kind of long-term estimate about how big you expect this database to grow?

The DB is shared across every wiki IABot runs on. As it expands to more wikis the DB will grow a little more. The DB also contains log entries for https://tools.wmflabs.org/iabot, and a bot queue. So I was thinking 120GB, would be sufficient for a while.

My current understanding:

• We bumped up for a large instance which can be formatted with a srv of 55GB
• The current DB is 45GB which means not a ton of headroom there
• @Cyberpower678 wants us to add quota that would take the large added here and make an xlarge possible (so the delta between a large and an xlarge)
• The current new large gets deleted
• A new xlarge is created

Is this where things stand?

Actually it is my understanding that there exists a large instance flavor with a bigdisk option. So the instance CPU and RAM are the same, but the SRV space is much larger. I don't want to needlessly waste CPU and RAM resources when the large flavor is sufficient. But apparently that flavor needs to be added to the cyberbot project.

(please only create the single large bigdisk instance)

Here is what we approved in our meeting:

• Access to the 'bigdisk' flavor within openstack with 300GB disk

21e9047d-a60f-499d-b7f5-51f83ddf3611	bigdisk	24576	300	0	4	False

• No other quota bump from existing as this is a replacement of the current new-large instance that originally came from this task

@Andrew is going to facilitate

Excellent. :-) Thank you. I appreciate the patience and access to 300GB. :-)

I've added the 'bigdisk' flavor to this project, so now when you create a new VM you should see that as an option. Let me know if you run into any trouble.
