Hi, We maintain a devpi infrastructure (one master + several globally distributed replicas) and are facing a scheduled outage of our master server due to external conditions. Devpi version info: * devpi-findlinks-2.0.0 * devpi-server-4.2.1 * devpi-web-3.1.1 We will be able to shut down our master in a controlled manner and duration of outage is expected to be less then 5 mins. Also configuration of master (ip, dns, ...) will not change. Given that I'm no very deep into devpi, I have a couple of questions/assumptions regarding impact and system behaviour, which I'd like to get your input on: While the master is down, I'd assume the following operations to fail: * devpi login to replica * devpi upload (with/without docs) to replica While master is down, I'd assume the following operations to work: * pip install -i URL_TO_REPLICA/user/index * browser access to indices/release files/docu via URL_TO_REPLICA/user/index Are these assumptions correct? After booting our master successfully, would any manual interaction be required to ensure previously (before master shutdown) operational state? Cheers, /stephan
