- | ===== Upgrade of machines 2014 ===== | ||
- | |||
- | Machines to upgrade: **56** | ||
- | |||
- | **Reasons:** Main reason is to avoid security holes and update libraries. | ||
- | Since updating libraries might cause issues when using existing code, a set of machines with a specific version of the OS can be maintained to prevent and cross check compilation issues. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Tentative Schedule ==== | ||
- | |||
- | NOTE: The expected update time for each machine is between 2 and 3 hours. | ||
- | ^ Key Definitions ^^ | ||
- | ^Workstation|A desktop machine which people uses by sitting in front of. Usually located in offices.| | ||
- | ^Remote Workstation|A machine which people uses only through ssh access. Usually located in a server room.| | ||
- | ^Server|A machine that is used by the infrastructure, usually only accessed directly by an Admin. Usually located in a server room.| | ||

- | ==== Selection criterias ==== | ||
- | |||
- | - Target upgrade is to OpenSuSE 13.1 for two reasons: | ||
- | - It seems to have the most up-to-date libraries that suit most needs | ||
- | - Evergreen support has been announced until November 2016, see https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen | ||
- | - Machines with **OpenSuse 11.2** must be updated **first**. Support stopped 2013, see https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen | ||
- | - Some OpenSuse 11.2 machines will be left to avoid compilation issues, so that users can still have the same environment | ||
- | - Machines will be selected in a way that there is at least an old machine with the same memory/processor for each updated one. | ||
- | - Machines with **OpenSuse 11.4** will be updated **next**. Support stopped July 2014 (https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Evergreen) | ||
- | - See selection criterias above. | ||
- | - **Servers will be updated last**, from the least to the most important. | ||
- | - The most important ones will be updated after the other machines. A special schedule will follow as it will affect everybody. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ==== Situation ==== | ||
- | |||
- | Planned Upgrade is to OpenSuSE 13.1 -- although 13.2 will be released in November. | ||
