March 31 - April 6
Issues
Requested console access from ITS Systems for the following virtual servers:
utforge01.its.utexas.edu
utforge02.its.utexas.edu
utforge03.its.utexas.edu
utforge04.its.utexas.edu
braniff.its.utexas.edu
edsel.its.utexas.edu
capps.its.utexas.edu
totoro.its.utexas.edu
Footprints ticket regarding above request:
still waiting on an OLA between Applications and Systems
Systems will assign baseline OS support resources to our common good production services that currently do not have this – UTForge & JIRA
Contracts' virtual servers and development VMs:
currently Systems pricing policy for baseline OS support for 1 year is $2800 (100 hours @ $28/hr)
I believe this hour estimation is high for our servers and, unless Systems alters their pricing policy, I believe we should take care of baseline OS support and charge Contracts customers the time it takes us to do it
Highlights/Milestones
none this week
Upcoming
update packages and upgrade kernel on aforementioned virtual servers
meeting with Dr. Stahl later today (Thursday, April 7) regarding configurable software for economics experiments
