Oliver's meeting notes, 11/28/12's mtg
Barry:
- Depends on CCMR's AFS, which is also going away.
- Application was compiled to run on Skeeves server.
- Old 32-bit, on old hardware. Thought it might be RHEL~3 or so.
Ideas floated at meeting:
- On a new, fast Windows machine, create a Linux virtual machine (VM) with old OS version being used on Skeeve and port application over. Might port to new(er) OS.
- Key is to make this work with new file system so not depending on CCMR's AFS server/ services.
- Long-term: Must convert (re-write?) to make work with contemporary compiler, so can run on contemporary OSes and hardware. Until this happens, increasingly fragile.
