@Addshore the last step on Monday I guess you meant create an empty table?
Also when do you want the table rename to happen?

FWIW, I've updated the description to the date of the second step to match the one announce to the community.

Yes, although now sure if that is actually a CREATE or another view of some kinds, as I don't know all of the cloudy things :)

Also when do you want the table rename to happen?

I guess the table rename is actually different to changing the views?
If so, I don't think we actually need to rename the table at all? just fiddle with the views?

Change 583693 merged by Bstorm:
[operations/puppet@production] wikireplicas: Add wb_terms_no_longer_updated view name

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/583693

So as far as I understand and from https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/583693
The view wb_terms_no_longer_updated will point to wb_terms

The current wb_terms view points to wb_terms. I thought you wanted to, at some point, truncate wb_terms. If that happens and you want people to still be able to query old wb_terms data, we'd need to:

• Rename wb_terms table to maybe: wb_terms_no_longer_updated and re-point the view wb_terms_no_longer_updated to that "new" table.
• Create an empty wb_terms table with the same structure. wb_terms view will keep pointing to this now empty table.

You choose! :)

I would prefer the table rename be done, then the views can be adjusted so that wb_terms and wb_terms_no_longer_updated both are in the "fullviews" key in the yaml. That will make it clear there is no filtering or other whatnot going on.

In the patch I put up both wb_terms and wb_terms_no_longer_updated will point to wb_terms until the rename and empty table.

Generally, anything that is "select *" is under the fullviews structure in our config as long as the table name is the same. I think that's healthy. That yaml file is hard enough to understand as is.

Proposing a change to the description to match that....

That sounds good to me
Thank you :)

labsdb1011 is fighting with me. Lots of wikidata queries going on there. I'll start killin' 🔪

Done with today's part. Openstack upgrades seem to have affected some bots, or I'd put it in SAL.

@Addshore maybe this is not the right task to ask for it but...is Analytics aware of this change? They use labsdb1012 to sqoop data the first days of the month.

wb_terms in the cloud replicas for wikidatawiki_p is a view though? Or did I get that wrong?
If it is a view then we just remove that view and create a new table in wikidatawiki_p called wb_terms that is empty?
If it is not a view then we must do some more things.

If this is the desired approach then we can coordinate this on Monday (or chat tomorrow Friday) :)

I believe the sqooping of these tables only happens because of a desire by WMDE
I'll make sure we turn this off on Friday!
Ping @JAllemandou :)

We don't have any real tables in the *_p databases, and we should keep it that way because I think it very unwise to complicate the wikireplicas more than they already are. Only views are in those DBs, and they point at tables in the corresponding "non_p" databases. That's the whole basis of the design at the moment. I also do not wish to create things that exist outside the scripted system re: the views.

Theoretically, many tasks around the views should be do-able by the WMCS on-call without a lot of fuss. The wikidatawiki_p database should just have views in it that roughly match the description in the puppet-controlled yaml file. Otherwise, it'll get broken by a script run one way or another.

Sure!

Let me know how you guys want to proceed with this and when :)

As the labs relplica db tables do not get exposed to users at any level I don't know if we should bother renaming them.
If people agree with that statement then we would just do some view moving today with @Bstorm that would change the current wb_terms view to return 0 results

If we really do want to / have a reason to change the name of the underlying table then I guess we will need to coordinate a view change for the wb_terms_no_longer_updated view with the table rename between @Bstorm and @Marostegui

Up to you if you want to get the wb_terms table renamed or not (I would prefer to have it renamed so we don't get confused with it or drop it by accident) also we do have to decide what to do with the wb_terms view.

1

also we do have to decide what to do with the wb_terms view.

The plan will be for the wb_terms view to return 0 rows.

So I guess we have to coordinate the following:

• @Marostegui renames the wb_terms table and create a wb_terms empty table
• @Bstorm changes wb_terms_no_longer_updated view to point to the renamed version of wb_terms which still contains data.

The wb_terms view remains untouched and pointing to wb_terms empty table.

Sounds like a solid plan to me!

ok - let's wait for @Bstorm so we can execute it! :)
