|
|
You run into an interesting problem when Bugzilla reaches a
|
|
high level of continuous activity. MySQL supports only table-level
|
|
write locking. What this means is that if someone needs to make a
|
|
change to a bug, they will lock the entire table until the operation
|
|
is complete. Locking for write also blocks reads until the write is
|
|
complete. The
|
|
<SPAN
|
|
CLASS="QUOTE"
|
|
>"shadowdb"</SPAN
|
|
>
|
|
parameter was designed to get around this limitation. While only a
|
|
single user is allowed to write to a table at a time, reads can
|
|
continue unimpeded on a read-only shadow copy of the database.
|
|
Although your database size will double, a shadow database can cause
|
|
an enormous performance improvement when implemented on extremely
|
|
high-traffic Bugzilla databases.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
> As a guide, mozilla.org began needing
|
|
<SPAN
|
|
CLASS="QUOTE"
|
|
>"shadowdb"</SPAN
|
|
>
|
|
when they reached around 40,000 Bugzilla users with several hundred
|
|
Bugzilla bug changes and comments per day.</P
|
|
><P
|
|
>The value of the parameter defines the name of the
|
|
shadow bug database.
|
|
Set "shadowdb" to e.g. "bug_shadowdb" if you will be running a
|
|
*very* large installation of Bugzilla.

If you need to shut down Bugzilla to perform administration, enter

some descriptive HTML here and anyone who tries to use Bugzilla will

receive a page to that effect. Obviously, editparams.cgi will

still be accessible so you can remove the HTML and re-enable Bugzilla.

This defines whether you wish to have a free-form, overwritable field

that it can be deleted or modified with ease, and provides an

easily-searchable field for indexing some bugs that have some trait

in common.

Set this to the number of days you want to let bugs go

untouched new bugs. If you do not plan to use this feature, simply do

not set up the whining cron job described in the installation

instructions, or set this value to "0" (never whine).</P

|

All these

fields allow you to dictate what changes can pass without comment,
|
|
and which must have a comment from the person who changed them.
|
|
Often, administrators will allow users to add themselves to the CC
|
|
list, accept bugs, or change the Status Whiteboard without adding a
|
|
comment as to their reasons for the change, yet require that most
|
|
other changes come with an explanation.</P

is a wise idea to require comments when users resolve, reassign, or

reopen bugs at the very least.

Turning on this option allows users to ask to receive copies of

all a particular other user's bug email. This is, of

course, subject to the groupset restrictions on the bug; if the

around the system by setting herself up to watch the bugs of someone

with bugs outside her privileges. They would still only receive email

updates for those bugs she could normally view.</P
