SYSTEMS
EVS transition to virtual machines

STATUS:We need to have a decision about how to handle PROD VM server not being ready at the moment.Server - configured.  Met with Eric today.

Stage 2 VM updated from 2 to 32 CPUs

We were going to wait to switch STAGE from on prem to VM once PROD server is ready; so we can switch both PROD and STAGE at same time . 

We are waiting until OS conversions are complete and then will work on Prod system. 

  • DECIDED: conversion first, then transition to VMs.  Likely end of March
  • we are probably a ways from PROD VM; STAGE VM saw issues pop up during transition
