Hello cloud-vps users!
It's time for our annual cleanup of unused projects and resources. Every
year or so the Cloud Services team tries to identify and clean up unused
projects and VMs. We do this via an opt-in process: anyone can mark a
project as 'in use,' and that project will be preserved for another year.
I've created a wiki page that lists all existing projects, here:
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/Cloud_VPS_2022_Purge
If you are a VPS user, please visit that page and mark any projects that
you use as {{Used}}. Note that it's not necessary for you to be a
project admin to mark something -- if you know that you're currently
using a resource and want to keep using it, go ahead and mark it
accordingly. If you /are/ a project admin, please take a moment to mark
which VMs are or aren't used in your projects.
When February arrives, I will shut down and begin the process of
reclaiming resources from unused projects.
If you think you use a VPS project but aren't sure which, I encourage
you to poke around on https://tools.wmflabs.org/openstack-browser/ to
see what looks familiar. Worst case, just email
cloud@lists.wikimedia.org with a description of your use case and we'll
sort it out there.
Exclusive toolforge users are free to ignore this email.
Thank you!
-Andrew and the WMCS team
