color:#1F497D'>This upgrade sounds much more complicated and may require more coordination
of parties than I anticipated. I had not counted on D2L support being involved
so much that they would require a fee and that you would need a PO. This
project would definitely be a priority before any other major upgrades. We could
plan on an O.S. upgrade in May or August. Frank, if you recommend that we hold
off and just apply any service packs that are available on January 2<sup>nd</sup>,
I defer to your experience with these things. It seems like a lot of hurdles to
cram in the next few days for this to be pulled off smoothly. We do want a
smooth procedure. The downside to applying service packs on PROD now is that
our TEST and our PROD are now on two different versions. The TEST is on 10.1.0
and PROD is on 10.0.0.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hello Everyone, <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am not sure if everyone gets these notices from D2L, but I
will forward these as I get them. The notice is listed at the bottom of
this email. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Concerning the possibility of performing an upgrade on Jan
2nd, I submitted the request to Cary on 12/11 and Cary said it can take
sometime to get a final quote. Cary informed me today the he should have
a final quoted cost OneNet will incur to migrate to the new 2008 servers
tomorrow, Dec. 21. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>The most important question now, assuming I get a PO and D2L
can schedule the work for test next week and production on Jan. 2nd, is
everyone comfortable with having a short time to test the upgrade before we upgrade
production? If D2L can upgrade our test system by Dec. 27th, that will
give everyone 5 calendar days to test. I am ok with this since we are not
changing the app just upgrading the server OS. Please provide feedback,
since I know in lieu of the OS upgrade we may want to have D2L apply a service
pack. <o:p></o:p></p>
