Does the cloud-vps WikiPathways project need NFS?
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

We're starting the process of moving project NFS off of a central server and into project-specific fileservers. Before I start that, I want to determine which projects really use NFS.

'WikiPathways' popped up as one of a few projects who use very little space on NFS and/or haven't written to NFS for many months.

Is it possible that we can eliminate your use of NFS entirely?

I'll check with our team members on our call next week and let you know. Thanks!

I think with the increased cinder storage, we may possibly be able to get rid of this, but I'll verify with the rest of our team next week.

Update: we're currently using NFS for one thing, but I'll transfer us off of it this week and let you know as soon as I'm done.

That's great! Thank you for the update.

I've transferred the data to another volume, so we're not currently using NFS.

Do I need to unmount anything or change my Puppet configuration for my compute instance named data? I think it's currently set to mount NFS:

nfs_mount: true
profile::wmcs::nfsclient::mode: soft

I can unhook things if you like, I've done a lot of them this week :)

The process is to set nfs_mount: false, force puppet runs, remove nfs references from /etc/fstab and then unmount and rm the associated directories.
