Hi Serg, Daniel, Some time ago there was discussion of slow Buildbot upload speed (sorry, don't have the original mail thread to reply to). I found some new information on this.
Yesterday I had to do a custom build, but was not able to because my tarbake upload kept getting stuck. So I had to investigate. Turns out the real problem was that hasky:/media/backup/archive/pack was full. And apparently, the error handling in Buildbot upload step is broken, so the error is not caught properly but just causes the upload to hang. I have noticed this before, that upload gets stuck. I wonder if full disk on hasky has caused this before. Daniel: Do we have something that removes old builds from /archive/pack? I did not see anything in root or buildbot crontabs? With respect to slow uploads, while trying various things, one thing I did was increase the upload blocksize in Buildbot config. Now I see tarbake upload (50MB) taking just 1 minute, which seems fair (probably it can be more if the network or buildbot is busy). So I'm wondering if the slow upload that was seen was in fact a combination of too low default blocksize, and uploads occasionally getting _completely_ stuck? It's of course still fine to move to using rsync, as Serg proposed earlier; just wanted to mention what I found. And in either case, we still need a solution to prevent /archive/pack from running full in the future... - Kristian. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
