Deletion of person objects. Final reminder
by Joao Luis Silva Damas 23 Sep '01

23 Sep '01

Dear all, (apologies for duplicates) Today is the 21st of September. As such, the RIPE NCC will proceed to delete the set of person/role objects detailed in my previous announcements from the RIPE Database. Please see the URL http://www.ripe.net/ripencc/pub-services/db/orphaned.html for information on the details of the objects to be deleted. The following is an outline of the process we will be using: 1. Stop updating the database on Friday, 21, at 18:00 CEST. 2. Remove all person objects according to the criteria: - maintained _only_ by DE domain resellers and not referenced - not maintained and not referenced This will take ~15 hours 3. Next day, on Saturday restart the server with the new database. 4. Resume the updates. As you can see, this process will result in period of a few hours during which UPDATE/ADDITION/DELETION messages sent to the RIPE Database will not be processed immediately, but rather stored for later processing. Queries will be serviced by our hot spare machine. Users will not notice any downtime on that part of the service. The length of the outage is directly related to the number of objects to be deleted (more than 2 million) and the need to use special processes to finalise the process in a reasonable time. Further to this deletion, and in order to avoid replication of the current situation after this deletion process, incoming messages containing person and role objects originating from domain name related activities will NOT be processed. The RIPE NCC will contact any source of such messages in order to clear any possible misunderstandings. Hoping to have informed you well, Joao Luis Silva Damas Chief Technical Officer RIPE NCC

If your "handle" is being used for IP registration our any IRR related function, it will be referenced from an already existing object in the RIPE Database and will therefore NOT be deleted. If your handle was only in use for domain (other that in-addr.arpa) registration purposes, then your contact information should be registered with the corresponding TLD administrator as it will be deleted from the RIPE Database. No new handles are being created in this process as only handles used for functions foreign to the RIPE Database will be deleted in the process later today. Hopes this clarifies the situation for you, if not, please contact me.
