It's been a bit of a trial, but the site upgrades are complete, at least as far as this application is concerned. A lot has been done, but there is still more to do!
Read on for the rest of the story...
Over the last week or so I have taken my old server out of commission and replaced it with this one. It's configuration is:
- Four core AMD Opteron 2.1GHz processor
- 8GB ECC RAM
- 2 1TB SATA2 drives, software RAID 1 (mirroring)
- 2 Gb ethernet cards
This is a screaming machine running CentOS 5.3.
What still needs to be done is:
- Upgrade to the latest Connect code with integrated web meetings, embedded video, and several other cool enhancements
- Install the integrated CRM/Management Console to control Connect and facilitate communications with members
- Complete the configuration of email, including relaying for the ancient computers running on the private network
- Configure NFS as storage and backup for my ancient UNIX systems on the private network
- Get the word out!
