Monty Taylor eaa74543de Finish updating docs for opendev
The zuul and zuulv3 docs need to be merged, but that seemed like
too much for this. Also, the 3rd party CI doc is out of date, but
in this patch only removed sections that linked to docs or files
that don't exist anymore.

Paste

Paste

Paste servers are an easy way to share long-form content such as configuration files or log data with others over short-form communication protocols such as IRC. OpenStack runs the "lodgeit" paste software.

Overview

For OpenStack we use a fork of lodgeit which is based on one with bugfixes maintained by dcolish but adds back missing anti-spam features required by OpenStack.

Puppet configures lodgeit to use MySQL as a database backend, apache as a front-end proxy.

The lodgeit module will automatically create a git repository in /var/backups/lodgeit_db. Inside this every site will have its own SQL file, for example "openstack" will have a file called openstack.sql. Every day a cron job will update the SQL file (one job per file) and commit it to the git repository.

Note

Ideally the SQL files would have a row on every line to keep the diffs stored in git small, but mysqldump does not yet support this.
