Excerpt

~13 year old system suffering from benign neglect. Public web server with few if any updates to OS or web server, on Chemistry's "trusted" network. Original re-write plans fell through.

Goal

Completion by at least the end of AugustAugust  (complete this summer). What does success looks like?

  • NMR Scheduler still works.
  • Current old (at-risk) hardware no longer being used.
    • Prone to power-outage problems.
  • Current OS and Apache (insecure) software no longer being used.
  • System is not no longer on Chemistry's trusted network.
  • Chemistry IT continues not to have any responsibilities to regarding the functioning of the server or its services.

Process

  • Ivan to make the migration happen.
  • Chemistry IT to provide consultation services.
  • Chemistry IT to provide this documentation so project moves forward efficiently and with fewer surprises.
  • Chemistry IT to induce pressure to ensure the server moves off of Chemistry's trusted network in a timely manner.
    • This will include organizing regular check–in meetings. And managerial escalation if pace or engagement not sufficient to move server off of Chemistry's trusted network.
