Shut down the old homepage servers on Bahnhof
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

This includes both the server running Drupal and the one running accompanying database. Make sure that at least a backup of both server remains. If backups can be kept, but the server itself can be removed/repurposed, that would probably be ideal.

Event Timeline

I've shut down the servers now and have e-mailed Bahnhof's cloud support regarding keeping backups after removing a server.

According to cloud support, we can make templates of the backups, from which new server can be created later.

I have created templates from the latest daily backups:

  • 176.10.250.191 (databas - wikimedia01) -> databas-2019-09-10
  • 176.10.250.192 (wikimedia.se - wikimedia02) -> wikimedia.se-2019-09-10

I removed the disk for wikimedia02 and minimized the RAM to reduce the costs, since even when it's turned off there are costs. The swap disk couldn't be removed. wikimedia01 was reused for Matomo.
