ITS has successfully accomplished Cyxtera LAX3 Data Center setup and four (4) move events, totaling approximately 40 applications.

Operational priorities have shifted to supporting remote working and teaching in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Ensuring that faculty and students have a viable and reliable online learning environment during this unprecedented time has become ITS’ absolute first priority.  Following closely behind this effort, ITS’ second priority is to ensure that all staff have the support and resources they need to continue core University operations while working remotely.  

In addition to the disruption created by the virus, feedback and data collected during the non-production move events have provided additional insight into the best approach for proper migration of specific services to the new data center.  ITS is currently incorporating the preliminary move event findings into the overall move process. 

As frequently mentioned, ITS is committed to ensuring the continued success of the campus throughout the course of this project. As such, we are currently making schedule adjustments identified as necessary to mitigate prolonged service interruption.  More information and an updated schedule will be provided as soon as these adjustments are reviewed and confirmed.
