We move the weechat session from the old server Ysul to the new server Eglide.
Benefits
Real RAM is still available on Eglide, that will decrease RAM use on Ysul. Eglide uses SSD storage, so it will be faster too for disk access.
Rationale
We really need to claim resources on Ysul to stop memory swap, so we're moving some IRC traffic from Ysul to Eglide.
top gives as best candidates Dæghrefn and the amj weechat. This task handles the second.
Plan
Right now:
- create an amj account on Eglide
Migration:
- kill processes on Ysul (not jails! regular account)
- copy $HOME from Ysul to Eglide
- restart processes on Eglide
After the migration:
- configure a crontab on Eglide to run automatically weechat at startup
- consider to redirect https://ysul.nasqueron.org/~amj to https://eglide.org/~amj if there is a need to consolidate all on the same machine
Official termination notice
IMPORTANT: any IRC-related process to the Ysul amj account will be terminated 2016-08-17 if the migration isn't completed.
