Re: GitLab is down: urgent

Hi Ben, Richard and Davean, I would like to help however I can. I already maintain the Haskell wiki, and I would like to improve and document its configuration using devops techniques, preferably consistent with gitlab.haskell.org. Regards, Howard On Fri, 2021-03-19 at 12:14 -0400, davean wrote:

There is the haskell-infrastructure group, who has access. Its knowledge of the peculiarities of each of the very different services that's harder to keep up to date between people.

If Ben was hit by a bus it is prepared to be handled. With this diversity and level of manpower though stepping in tends to be a high cost operation so it is done when necessary.

Hi Ben,

Thanks for getting the fix in so quickly.

However: suppose you were unavailable to do this, due to a well- deserved holiday perhaps. Who else has the credentials and know-how to step in?

I feel as if we should have a resource somewhere with a definitive list of critical services and who has access to what. Perhaps this list should be kept private, in case the knowledge itself is a (small) security risk -- but it should be written down and shared widely enough that it is unlikely for all people with access to be unavailable at the same time.

Do we have such a resource already?

GHC's GitLab seems to be down. Ben? (I just get 502's)

Everything should now be back to normal. I have sent a post- mortem describing the failure mode and fix. Apologies for the inconvenience!

Cheers,
