1. Storage Refresh Project Migration of Enterprise Leased Shares Websites Home Directory Service

2. Project Overview Started in late Fall 2013; complete late Fall 2014 Consolidated enterprise system replaces multiple disparate and outdated storage solutions Data stored on the current storage systems migrated to the new architecture during the year

3. Project Overview--continued End result: flexibility to select a storage option customized for specific data needs, depending upon factors such as: – space and disk speeds, – storage connection type, – integration with other network infrastructures, – content mirroring and other security requirements.

4. Migration Plan The plan How will it be done? What does it mean for me? Why should I think this will work?

5. The Plan Plan is to migrate enterprise leased shares, websites, & Home Directory Service just before Thanksgiving – Less activity – Allows for completion and any fine-tuning before final exams

6. How will it be done? In the least disruptive way – Will need to move everything at the same time Frees old server names which avoids having to update client configurations – Will change Web servers access to read-only instead of shutting down access completely Sites will be accessible, just not updatable Database storage has already been migrated – Home Directory & leased shares are an exception: Read-only not an option—storage will not be accessible Access restored in rotation

7. What does it mean for me? Websites – Will be readable, but can’t update for about an hour – When logging into server afterwards, might get prompted for login password Home Directory – No access as as each volume’s copy is completed, then full access is restored Leased Shares – No access as individual leased shares’ copies are completed, then full access is restored

8. Why should I think this will work? At end of major storage refresh – Lots of experience with how it works – Already moved similar storage including: UVaCollab SHANTI’s WordPress & Confluence Services ITS Website University Library Web Services Large Web shares and selected leased storage
