FYI: UVa is upgrading from V4.20 to V5.0
17:38 Sherry
1st question is about the Postgres version. We still have postgresql-9.1-902.jdbc4.jar Is this a problem should we upgrade.
17:39 pdurbin
Are you asking about the driver (the jar file) or the version of Postgres on the server?
17:40 Sherry
Upgrade step says: Copy the Postgres driver to /usr/local/payara5/glassfish/lib sudo cp /usr/local/glassfish4/glassfish/lib/postgresql-42.2.9.jar /usr/local/payara5/glassfish/lib/
17:40 Sherry
But we have postgresql-9.1-902.jdbc4.jar instead of postgresql-42.2.9.jar
17:41 pdurbin
Ah. I think you should use that "42" driver. It's newer.
17:41 pdurbin
donsizemore has upgraded it for us
17:42 Sherry
Ok, will download "42" and put that in the new the new payara5 folder
17:42 pdurbin
Sounds good.
17:43 pdurbin
If you're curious about "Why the versioning change from 9.4.xxxx to 42.x.x?" - https://jdbc.postgresql.org/documentation/faq.html#version-change
17:50 Sherry
OK, but can we do this upgrade V5.0 with our current version 9.4?

today's fun dataverse observation - it's possible to fill up ~20GB with a dataverse install, with no thumbnails or data files
18:24 pdurbin
Sherry: I thought you had a 9.1 driver. I'd suggest using a 42 driver.
18:24 pdurbin
pameyer: bigger is better?
18:25 pameyer
pdurbin: it probably does need more space, but I'm still tracking down what's using it
18:26 pdurbin
gotcha
18:26 pameyer
but when you scale to ~125K datasets, there's a non-trivial amount of storage for _something_
18:35 donsizemore
@pdurbin I didn't upgrade it recently (Oliver built it into the 5.3 warfile)
18:46 donsizemore
@Sherry 42.2.18 is current; they're officially/hopefully backwards-compatible with previous versions of Postgres
19:11 pdurbin
should be
19:31 Sherry
Thanks!!!! UVA Dataverse is at V5.0 now.... hoping to keep upgrading to V5.2 by the end of the day.
19:34 pdurbin
great!
19:48 pameyer
space that I tracked down turned out to be mostly split between cached exports and postgres, with a little from solr logs that didn't have logrotate
19:48 pameyer
not everything accounted for, but those looked like the biggest chunks
19:51 pdurbin
god bless logrotate
19:52 pameyer
that, and testing things before going live
19:53 pdurbin
:)
20:11 Sherry
OK, UVa now needs to get payara as a "service". We are running on CentOS 6.10 - is there an example of an init.d script?
20:14 pdurbin
Sherry: sure, here you go: https://guides.dataverse.org/en/5.3/installation/prerequisites.html#launching-payara-on-system-boot
20:15 pdurbin
I think you want the first one, the systemd one.
20:16 Sherry
Thanks!
20:18 pameyer
Sherry - are you aware of the centos 6 end of support dates?
20:23 Sherry
I'll let my sysadmin know - or tell him to investigate.
20:24 pameyer
might already be something on his radar, but I don't think it's getting security updates anymore
20:36 donsizemore
centos pulled the updates they _did_ offer
20:36 donsizemore
http://distro.ibiblio.org/centos/6/readme
20:37 donsizemore
(and talk about superfluous apostrophes)
20:41 pameyer
fortunately, I don't think the cent6 iso's are signed (with certs w\ expiration dates)
20:49 Sherry
My sysadmin says "We are hoping to have everyone at AWS before that hammer falls"
20:54 pdurbin
please hammer don't hurt 'em
