Please be advised that the CentOS CI Production Openshift cluster is due
for scheduled maintenance from 06:00 to 08:00 UTC on 2025-04-28 .
During this period necessary updates will be applied to the cluster.
The upgrade is not expected to be service affecting, however there might
be periods of slight performance degradation (pods restarting on other
workers) during this maintenance period. We apologize for any
inconvenience that this may cause.
Detailed version : (see https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issue/1609)
We're still running 4.15.x openshift, and we're due to some upgrades in
a row to jump to 4.18.x
These updates will require some time and so will restart all your pods
multiple times.
The longest operation is the conversion to OVN-kubernetest config type
(instead of deprecated/removed now OpenShiftSDN one)
We tested all the intermediate steps on our staging cluster and all pods
were coming back, so we're confident that it should still work for you
after the upgrade, but at least you're aware of what's coming and why
some of your CI jobs would be stopped/restarted by jenkins (if you use
jenkins that is)

We recently discovered that number of duffy ec2 instances (aws side) is
much higher than what Duffy thinks is provisioned so at some point, it
lost track of really deployed ec2 and we need to reconcile DB and reality)
We just need to :
stop duffy
delete all duffy ec2 instances
clean-up duffy DB
restart duffy (and it will reprovision from scratch/zero)
Once restarted, you'll be able to resume your ci jobs and requesting
duffy nodes
Maintenance is scheduled for """"Wednesday April 23rd, 11:30 am UTC
time"""".
You can convert to local time with $(date -d '2025-04-23 11:30 UTC')
So just sending this in advance so that you can either pause your
builds, or just inject logic into your provisioning scripts for duffy
nodes and just retry until service is available again.
