Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-cloud) [2022-10-19T20:45:17Z] <andrewbogott> shutting down fastcci-new-master, see T306073

The stretch instance 'fastcci-new-master.fastcci.eqiad1.wikimedia.cloud' has been offline (state 'error') for some time now. Does anyone want to speak up in it defense or shall I delete it?

Uh oh. I'll double check if that instance is still needed.

Ok, I deleted that instance and I'm setting up a new one. Why are the other Bullseye instances also marked as "deprecated"?

'deprecated' refers to the base image and not the VM, so no action is needed there. It's a confusing name, it really just means that the bullseye installation is not the very latest release.

Thank you for attending to the broken instance :)
