Well, the database shuffles continue. We decided that, hey, oscar is no longer the master science database server, and has the same configuration as our master mysql database server (carolyn) so it could easily take over the replica mysql duties from jocelyn (which had been failing at keeping up over the past few weeks). We think jocelyn finally reached its limit at this front, and thus oscar is now the replica mysql database, and jocelyn may be retired soon. Well, jocelyn may be an ample compute server but honestly oscar, even after taken on all the mysql duties, still has more memory and cpu cycles left over than jocelyn has doing nothing. It has 28GB of memory, which is a lot for being a compute server, but not a database. Plus jocelyn's storage is an external fibre channel jbod using software RAID. We can pretty much remove 4U of gear from the closet today if we wanted to. Or jocelyn will become another web server. Many options. It's great to see these server upgrades finally moving forward after certain dams were broken.
Also for the record jocelyn had been doing such a non-perfect job of keeping up in general over the past year that we have been aiming all queries (except maybe a scant one or two stastical queries per day) at carolyn. In other words, jocelyn was mostly just an up-to-date (or close-to-up-to-date) live backup of carolyn for a while. This may change, now that oscar's "seconds behind master" has pretty much been pegged at zero since it started up. Not that carolyn needs any extra help.
Oh yeah - thanks for spotting the "robots.txt" issue in the last thread. I added "/sah/" to the disallow list. We have been hit pretty hard by spiders lately and the /sah/ portion of the URLs were getting lost in the log noise - anyway we'll see if adding that line helps.
