Requestor provided information and prerequisites
The users already have some level of access to the maps cluster. What we need here is permission to use a depooled machine maps2007.codfw.wmnet to test new puppet rules. How can we proceed with that?
Reason
There are a few blockers:
- The tool imposm3 is not on debian stable channel, so to install it on the server we need to backport the binary
- The OSM sync uses scripts that interacts with DB in 2 different levels: import and update. So we need to be careful with the permissions we are giving to the scripts
- We can manually install imposm3 on beta-cluster machines and test some of the scripts, but testing on beta cluster is good at a certain level, we can’t test full planet data because of disk space
We need the right level of permissions to be testing the new puppet rules at maps2007.codfw.wmnet before being ready for production and review from SRE.
