Eval from 8/13/13:
To do's and questions
...
- Initially populating the DB with PeopleSoft data via a PeopleSoft import.
- Question: Can a vetted clone of a DB on Pat's desktop be used to replace the server production DB?
- Function tends to be of most value at the beginning of the semester. Other times? (See revert procedure, below).
Notes:
- This is a one-time import per DB.
- ChemIT can do the uploads, if not A&S (if at all desired).
Establish semester-end procedures and processes. Includes:
...
- Clarify to what degree A&S staff (Dani and Tu) are available and willing to perform support.
- Hosting vs. Design/ Creation vs. Support
- Distinguish between something breaking (worked yesterday!) and new need (consultation/ design/ implementation).
Map out transition steps remaining
- Repoint cname, <grades.chem.cornell.edu>. ChemIT needs a date.
- Doing this means other systems (2 computers in TA room; Becky's computer) automatically cut-over. :-)
- Shut off access to old ChemIT-run instance (Win7 VM). "Legacy Grades". ChemIT needs a date.
