[Nelsonlab-admin] Celsius CLUSTER

[Allen D. <all...@uc...>]

I would like to schedule 2 days partial downtime beginning Friday afternoon
for the celsius database on axis, and the associated webservice at
http://das.biopackages.net.  The reason for this is that there has been a
large increase, greater than 30%, in the size of the database tables
containing the normalized data, leading to increasingly long query times.
To keep query times low, we need to physically reorder, or "cluster", the
contents of the tables.  There are a total of 8 tables needing maintenance,
and each will be taken offline for ~10 hours for the larger tables,
clustered, and brought back online.

If this collides with anyone's plans to access the database, or any other
scheduled outages please let me know so I can reschedule.
