cache.spack.io

• The new versions of these pages were well received at ISC!
• Update cache.spack.io to automatically include our new "rolling releases" (snapshot tags of develop).

Release process

• It sounds like something might have gone wrong in our buildcache population system when the v0.20 release was created in the GitHub web UI.
• Discuss with Max and Harmen how to make the next release go even more smoothly.
• Greg is working on adding backport functionality to spackbot.

Dashboarding

• Scott made a new dashboard that allows us to see the types of errors that occurred for a given ref. The motivation to create this was to find what types of errors occurred most frequently during the v0.20 release process.
• We are working to restore and expand access to our alert manager at prometheus.spack.io using GitHub OAuth.

pcluster stacks

• Work continues on this task, but it is in pretty good shape now.
• We discussed the fact that we currently need to create new EKS-version-specific pcluster AMIs each time upgrade EKS versions.

Priorities

• Upgrade gitlab.spack.io
• Pursue more detailed timing data in our analytics database. It would be useful to compare time spent downloading vs. unpacking vs. relocating vs. actually building (etc).
• Make sure we're using gp3 EBS volumes for our EC2 instances.
• Work on setting up a Windows Stack
