Switch to NixOS foundation account and go live

I hate to ask, but as the NixOS foundation images are gone... do you have an estimate for the go-live?

I'm basing "gone" on both API and Web queries for images with owner 080433136561. Also just searching for public images matching NixOS-23.05.* turns up nothing, which are the ones we'd been using (and channel-switching to 23.11) up until now.

https://eu-west-1.console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/home?region=eu-west-1#Images:visibility=public-images;owner=080433136561;v=3;$case=tags:false%5C,client:false;$regex=tags:false%5C,client:false

Oh that's jacked. I wasn't aware the old images 23.05 images got removed? This is news to me.

Of timelines launching this for 23.11 and 24.05. My hope is to have migrated to the new account this week. (Note that this will be a new account separate from 080433136561 ).

[arianvp]

Do you mean that the images here disappeared?

I tried a few and they all seem to be present.

 aws ec2 describe-images --region eu-west-2  --owner 080433136561

also works for me. All the images are there.

[greed42]

Oh I didn't think of trying a different region!

aws ec2 describe-images --region eu-west-1  --owner 080433136561
{
    "Images": []
}

But yes, I can see them in eu-west-2. They absolutely used to be in eu-west-1 as well.

aws ec2 describe-images --region eu-west-2  --owner 080433136561 | jq 'reduce .Images[] as $item (0; . + 1)'
9

This is obviously the wrong ticket for this -- do you have a suggestion for an appropriate reporting channel?

[arianvp]

Seems maybe somebody might have accidentally removed images in some of the regions. This is the reason why we are moving AMIs to a dedicated account in the first place. I hope this won't happen again with the new upload process I developed in this repo.
I'll check in the #infra:nixos.org channel on Matrix to see what happened.

[arianvp]

Cleared up with the infra team. Seems during the cleanup of snapshots in eu-west-1 these were accidentally deleted. I'm sorry.

I'll make sure to upload the 23.11 image to eu-west-1 too

Ah; thanks for the info.

Your experimental images are working fine in eu-west-1 so far.
