Description Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2012-05-23 10:01:03 UTC

TMH uses a temporary directory to rescale videos. We should reuses /dev/vdb which is mounted by default on /tmp by Nova.

We previously used /dev/vdb in labs for squid COSS ( https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/7118/ ).


TMH seems to forge a temporary file using:
 $tmpFile = TempFSFile::factory( 'transcode_' . $transcodeKey, $ext);
So we will have to alter the filerepo configuration for the transcoding boxes.

Comment 2 Peter Bena 2012-05-23 11:19:47 UTC

/dev/vdb is mounted as /mnt by default

Comment 3 Peter Bena 2012-05-23 11:20:17 UTC

which instance is this

Comment 4 Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2012-05-23 13:03:15 UTC

That would be the jobrunner boxes. But I am probably going to need a new puppet class and create new instances named something like deployment-transcoding

Comment 5 Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2012-05-23 15:44:31 UTC

I thought we could use /dev/vdb to mount it on /tmp, but that just screwed everything.  I have reverted my changes with https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/8610 (pending merge right now).

Will have to find a better solution, I guess TMH should be made to use a subdirectory in /mnt as a temporary directory.

Comment 6 Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2012-05-23 15:53:16 UTC

The feature need to be added to the TMH extension. See:
