Subject: RE: SiteManager & EPRS unavailable this weekend for server migrations

 

UPDATE:

IT ran into issue this weekend while performing the migration over to the Austin Data Center (ADC).

 

SiteManager and EPRS did not come up Sunday evening as scheduled and the migration to ADC had to be halted and reverted back to Camp Hubbard.

 

About midafternoon yesterday SiteManager and EPRS were back online.

 

For some time this weekend the SiteManager application and EPRS website were prematurely made available for use. Before all testing had been completed, and before it had been determined that there was an issue that warranted the return to Camp Hubbard, users of both systems recorded data. These updates are currently unavailable.

 

Affected users have been notified of the issue via email. I’ve asked them to gives us an opportunity to review the missing data and see what can be returned.

As of 2:00 we’ve processed 1,908 of 2,264 reports with about 380 cued.

 

The tracking data indicates the servers are completing reports at the same rate they are being requested.

 

One of five servers was restarted around noon today. This will help to speed things up, but a backlog exists and it will take most of the day to get through it.
