Student Records on new servers

SITs Vision should now be residing on entirely new servers. This is sort of exciting for us (yeah - we are that sad and geek) for several reasons:

• We can retire some of the older, not-so-good servers and get them to stop generating heat and noise. This means the server room is a more pleasant place to be.
• The new servers are a lot faster/more powerful so things should run faster.
• The new servers have been put together from scratch for quite tightly targetted purposes so should be less work to maintain.

On the flip side there's still more work to do. EVision has yet to be moved to its new home and there will be a degree of mop-up work to do to get the smaller applications out there to point at the new servers. As you can see in the last post we're onto that one and each of us has been doing work recently to make the transferral as smooth as possible. Hopefully it won't cause anyone too much aggravation :)
