Documenting day-to-day work on the CGSpace repository.

  • Linode sent an alert that CGSpace (linode18) was using 261% CPU for the past two hours

  • Ask Sisay to clean up the WLE approvers a bit, as Marianne’s user account is both in the approvers step as well as the group

  • Delete 58 blank metadata values from the CGSpace database:
dspace=# delete from metadatavalue where resource_type_id=2 and text_value='';
DELETE 58
  • I also ran it on DSpace Test because we’ll be migrating the CGIAR Library soon and it would be good to catch these before we migrate
  • Run system updates and restart DSpace Test
  • We only have 7.7GB of free space on DSpace Test so I need to copy some data off of it before doing the CGIAR Library migration (requires lots of exporting and creating temp files)
  • I still have the original data from the CGIAR Library so I’ve zipped it up and sent it off to linode18 for now
  • sha256sum of original-cgiar-library-6.6GB.tar.gz is: bcfabb52f51cbdf164b61b7e9b3a0e498479e4c1ed1d547d32d11f44c0d5eb8a
