Task list

• Remove excessive RAM from NEW-1 server
• Install new servers with Ubuntu 22.04 on both NEW-1 and NEW-2
• Finish sorting out Marconi restore
  • Install Semantic Result Formats MediaWiki plugin and configure. Check to see if Events and Projects pages now work properly.
  • Make bespoke version of the Personal Tools and Page Tools menus so they show text rather than just icons in the wiki's grey top menu bar.
  • Reinstate the Next Event bar at the top of the page to the left of the social media icons
  • Update to Google analytics 4
• Create new VM for managing authentication and install [1] using a Docker container
• Migrate VMS-B32-1 VMs to VMS-B53-1 and convert into LXD containers
• Start building new servers into replacement gateway servers
• Add Zepler WebSDR page to WordPress to remove SUWS WebSDR we recently removed as WebSDR at Farnham no longer exists.
  • Archive information about the defunct Farnham WebSDR somewhere.

Results

• SUWS Wiki / WordPress
  • Google Analytics is not active after the rebuild of marconi and will therefore not be migrated.
  • Wiki's Semantic Results Format extension has been re-installed to display events timelines.
  • The wiki Projects page has been fixed, required removing the ? symbols before the variable name.
  • Namespaces for Meeting, Workshop, Outing, Inventory, ItemType and ItemState (including talk namespaces) have been updated to use numbers not used by Semantic Mediawiki. mw_pages mw_smw_ids namespace fields have been updated to use these new numbers.
  • Tyler reckons everything related to these wiki changes shouls sort themselves out over time.

• Gateway server builds
  • NEW-1 has had its excessive memory removed to reduce it back to 16GB.
  • NEW-1 has taken a 4-port network card out of Goneril, so we can configure the real interfaces but still have network access. If we used a real intefrcae this could conflict with existing gateway server.
  • NEW-1 and NEW-2 have been installed with Ubuntu 22.04
  • NEW-1 has been renamed to GW-B32-NEW
  • NEW-2 had been renamed to GW-B53-NEW

• Keycloak for SSO
  • New guest VM deployed on VMS-B53-1 with hostname keycloak.sown.org.uk and CNAME sso.sown.org.uk
  • Request to register these hostnames on SOWN's external DNS have been raised as an iSolutions ticket.
  • Keycloak has been installed as a Docker container on this VM.
