# One of bouncer's db servers wasn't running, which caused updates to fail ({{bug|476753}}. Had to pull/push updates a few times while trying to get it working. Why was the server not up and running? How do we ensure this doesn't happen in the future?
# Bouncer slave database was disabled, causing updates to fail when the master was under high load ({{bug|476753}}). Had to pull/push updates a few times while debugging.
# Had to throttle bits after release ({{bug|476875}} because mirrors couldn't handle load. Why? How do we ensure this doesn't happen in the future?
## <code>tm-bouncer01-slave02</code> was disabled in the load balancer during a previous maintenance window and never re-enabled.
## Actions:
### Need to monitor backend service status on the load balancer ({{bug|476764}}) in the same way we monitor origin web servers.  Nagios would have alerted after maintenance window that the slave was disabled.
### Bouncer needs three databases to withstand a failure of one during release ({{bug|477183}}).
# Had to throttle bits after release ({{bug|476875}}) because mirrors couldn't handle load.  
## Mirror weighting needs to automatically change when mirrors come and go.  See {{bug|454023}} ("Sentry should automatically decrease weights on mirrors that get dropped and re-added") for more details.
## Process for adding new mirrors gated on one person, IT's added more subscribers to the list
# Throttling remained on long after necessary
## Need some monitoring to alert/remind when throttling is still configured ({{bug|477184}}).
