Just to make sure that I know what is happing to OPUS data:
- the entire /proj/nlpl/data/OPUS is now synced with abel?
- all of it is now also backed up to NIRD (in 2 places?)

Sorry for my confusion.
Jörg

thanks, joerg.  i will use that as a test of our ‘back-up’ strategy
tomorrow then.

in other words, i shall let the nightly replication complete before i
remove ‘/proj/nlpl/modules/’ on Taito tomorrow.  tomorrow night, we
should then be notified of those files disappearing, which i expect
should become visible to us via a notification that they were moved
into the ‘backup’ folder on NIRD.  off the top of my head, i am not
sure what will happen 24 hours later.  i had originally looked more
closely at how exactly to call rsync(1) before the summer ...  i
believe, with a bit of luck, the removed files should remain in the
NIRD ‘backup’ folder until overwritten by another version, i.e. we
might in practice actually have more than a 24-hour window to deal
with inadvertent data loss.

i sugges we all study the nightly messages with some curiosity and
care the next few days.  as of today, there should be a total of four
message coming to ‘infrastructure’:

+ back-up to NIRD on Abel
+ back-up to NIRD on Taito
+ replication of ‘data/corpora/’ from Abel to Taito
+ replication of ‘data/vectors/’ from Abel to Taito

i am keeping the latter two separate because there is an additional
recipient (andrey) on the notifications for the vectors repository.

good night for today :-), oe

I guess it is. Should be safe to remove ...

hi joerg,

i am pretty sure that ‘/proj/nlpl/modules/’ is a left-over the old
days, before we had landed on our final set of installation
guidelines?  i would like to remove it, to avoid duplication and
confusion, okay?
