Report by Sue Woodger for October 2024

Achievements this period

  • Finally managed to meet with supplier and an agreement on the build was reached along with new dates for the project agreed
  • Servers have now been ordered  - 1-2wk lead time so expected at the beginning of November
  • Originally were expecting to have to build
    • 2 x Test MariaDB (mariadb-ocs-kb1test & mariadb-ocs-at1test)
    • 1 x Test App Server (ocs-app-test)
    • 2X Live MariaDB (mariadb-ocs-kb1live & mariadb-ocs-at1live)
    • 1 x Live App Server (ocs-app-live)
  • But DevTech have since discussed with the Supplier and are now planning to use Docker containers and this has reduced the servers down to two
    • ocsinventory-test
    • ocsinventory-live

Issues

  • Due to supplier being unable to attend the initial meetings the build of the servers was delayed – but they have now been ordered
  • Revised milestones were therefore agreed and submitted to AppsReview

 

Next Steps

  • Completion of server build
  • Supplier to update OCS on Test
  • CAHSS to test the TEST environment
