Agenda (meeting notes below)

Hyrax update @Randall Floyd
- v5.2.0, probably out today
  - Backwards compatibility for Rails version
- One standout issue on the F6 performance testing sheet needs investigating:
  - “Change visibility for a work with over 150 Filesets in Hyrax user interface and apply changes to children”
  - Is asynchronous, but typically takes 20 to 30 minutes to finally finish
  - We will add this issue to current Hyrax sprint and Randall will investigate
  - Possibly related to indexing, Rob has ideas for solutions and will connect with Randall/others when ready
  - Rob: “The fact that we have only a couple performance issues on F6 is a huge achievement.”
Hyku/Hyrax chunked upload issue
- Affects uploads over 10MB in size
- Syncs themselves are fairly innocuous
- PR in Hyrax main, Hyku will get a release, other Hyku instances later
Welcome to Praneeth Byna from WVU!
No unresponded calls for help on Slack
Nick S: in Hyrax is there a fix in place for Hyku batch deleting works leading to Solr persisting broken links?
- Can occur when doing batch deleting, or deleting a few works one by one in succession
- Nick H: Hyrax testing deletes individual works, possible (not likely) related open issue: Sipity entities not cleaned up from DB after deletion · Issue #6001 · samvera/hyrax
- Nick S will do additional testing in f6.nurax since testing up until this point has been in a hyku tenant
