Migrate remaining tools off Gridengine
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Now that the migration to the buster gridengine is complete (T304247), it's time to deprecate Gridengine itself. See https://techblog.wikimedia.org/2022/03/14/toolforge-and-grid-engine/ for background information.

  • Generate list of tools needing migration https://grid-deprecation.toolforge.org/
  • Create phabricator task for each tool
  • Examine tools for potential migration paths (ie, webservices, python tools, cron jobs, etc) for each one
  • Categorize tools into a migration path
  • Work with tool authors to plan migration
  • Work the list and migrate or shut down tools still running on the grid
  • Plan grid shutdown

Timeline is now set: https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Toolforge_Grid_Engine_deprecation#Timeline

It's March 14th, and we can say that as all tools that are going to migrate before the shutdown have been migrated at this point.
