TLDR of discussion from Cloud-Services
I lost access to parsing-qa-01.eqiad.wmflabs and @bd808 says it is because of expired certs and since it was original Debian stretch, I believe it is hard to get it fixed up because of its split identity between Stretch and Buster distros.
This phab task is for us to work through spinning up a new equivalent instance and the work needed for it to happen. We can edit description and create todo items here or create subtasks as appropriate.
Proposed fix:
- T292265 bump quota for wikitextexp to allow for another very large instance and 350GiB of cinder disk
- create a new parsing-qa-02 instance in the Cloud VPS project that will take over for parsing-qa-01 using the g3.cores16.ram36.disk20 flavor
- create a 350GiB cinder volume
- attach the cinder volume to parsing-qa-01
- fill cinder volume with data that needs to be preserved
- reattach the cinder volume to parsing-qa-02.wikitextexp.eqiad1.wikimedia.cloud
- shutdown parsing-qa-01
- hand the new instance over to @ssastry to finish setup
- delete parsing-qa-01 and reduce quota of project
