**When:** During a pre-defined DBA maintenance windows. Tuesday 12th April at 06:00 AM UTC
**Affected wikis:**: `commonswiki` `testcommonswiki`
**Checklist:**
NEW primary: db1160
OLD primary: db1138
[x] Check configuration differences between new and old primary:
```
sudo pt-config-diff --defaults-file /root/.my.cnf h=db1138.eqiad.wmnet h=db1160.eqiad.wmnet
```
**Failover prep:**
[x] Silence alerts on all hosts:
```
sudo cookbook sre.hosts.downtime --hours 1 -r "Primary switchover s4 T304933" 'A:db-section-s4'
```
[x] Set NEW primary with weight 0
```
sudo dbctl instance db1160 set-weight 0
sudo dbctl config commit -m "Set db1160 with weight 0 T304933"
```
[x] Topology changes, move all replicas under NEW primary
```
sudo db-switchover --timeout=15 --only-slave-move db1138 db1160
```
[x] Disable puppet on both nodes
```
sudo cumin 'db1138* or db1160*' 'disable-puppet "primary switchover T304933"'
```
[x] Merge gerrit puppet change to promote NEW primary: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/puppet/+/778688/
**Failover:**
[x] Log the failover:
```
!log Starting s4 eqiad failover from db1138 to db1160 - T304933
```
[x] Set section read-only:
```
sudo dbctl --scope eqiad section s4 ro "Maintenance until 06:15 UTC - T304933"
sudo dbctl config commit -m "Set s4 eqiad as read-only for maintenance - T304933"
```
[x] Check s4 is indeed read-only
[x] Switch primaries:
```
sudo db-switchover --skip-slave-move db1138 db1160
echo "===== db1138 (OLD)"; sudo db-mysql db1138 -e 'show slave status\G'
echo "===== db1160 (NEW)"; sudo db-mysql db1160 -e 'show slave status\G'
```
[x] Promote NEW primary in dbctl, and remove read-only
```
sudo dbctl --scope eqiad section s4 set-master db1160
sudo dbctl --scope eqiad section s4 rw
sudo dbctl config commit -m "Promote db1160 to s4 primary and set section read-write T304933"
```
[x] Restart puppet on both hosts:
```
sudo cumin 'db1138* or db1160*' 'run-puppet-agent -e "primary switchover T304933"'
```
**Clean up tasks:**
[x] Clean up heartbeat table(s): `delete from heartbeat.heartbeat where server_id=171978876`
[x] change events for query killer:
```
events_coredb_master.sql on the new primary db1160
events_coredb_slave.sql on the new slave db1138
```
[] Update DNS: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/operations/dns/+/778689/
[] Update candidate primary dbctl and orchestrator notes
```
sudo dbctl instance db1138 set-candidate-master --section s4 true
sudo dbctl instance db1160 set-candidate-master --section s4 false
(dborch1001): sudo orchestrator-client -c untag -i db1160 --tag name=candidate
(dborch1001): sudo orchestrator-client -c tag -i db1138 --tag name=candidate
```
[] Check zarcillo was updated
** db-switchover should do this. If it fails, do it manually: https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/P13956
[] (If needed): Depool db1138 for maintenance.
```
sudo dbctl instance db1138 depool
sudo dbctl config commit -m "Depool db1138 T304933"
```
[] Apply outstanding schema changes to db1138 (if any)
[] Update/resolve this ticket.
