	Mayo/Jason	We have run into multiple issues where the performance on the DEV tier has be a problem due to Mayo not being able to replicate the slow points due to the drastic difference in DEV resources. We discuss this with the systems team and they requested us to put in a DRT ticket that provides the specs to match the Mayo DEV server.	08/30/13			The server resources have been expanded with an addition vCPU and an additional 2GB memory. Initial tests have shown better performance but the testing is ongoing.

Spoke to EVS Tools TPM requesting the correct communication channels.

Opened Date	Description	Impact	Status
7/17/2013	The Term Browser deployments using AntHillPro require JAVA 1.6.	This would affect the deployments and production environment for the EVS tools. It sounds like this is going to be a future issue but we should have time to upgrade before it is part of the CBIIT tech stack.	Currently working on the JAVA 1.7 upgrade for Term Browser
7/31/2013	We currently have an issue where the browsers are ready to move to the QA tier for testing but due to the dependency of LexEVS 6.1 cannot start the QA testing process. LexEVS 6.1 does not currently have all the pre-QA qualification to proceed with the deployment to the QA tier.	With a hard deadline of Sept. 30 for both the browsers and LexEVS API 6.1 there is concern that there will be time to finish all the testing and deployments on time.	This is closed. The hard deadline was expanded due to factors we cannot control.
