• Per legislation (ESSB 5931, Oct. 1, 2011), the state intends to consolidate data centers
• The Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) developed and published the Updated SDC Business Plan which discusses next steps for OB2 as well as the consolidation of other state data centers
• OCIO recently distributed a survey to gather information about when agencies with data centers feel it makes sense for them to consolidate
• OCIO intends to publish another SDC Business Plan update in 2014

DR - VTL Overview• The goal of the Disaster Recovery - Virtual Tape Library Project is to
implement a secondary VTL environment in the SDC, establish replication between OB2 and the SDC, replicate the data, then move the OB2 VTL to the DR site.
• The VTL DR will serve as the offsite backup service for the production mainframe environments.
• CTS will be able to eliminate the existing physical tape infrastructure and avoid replacing the SL8500 tape robot and reduce physical tape related costs.

Customer CommunicationsCTS Project Managers• The primary points of contact at CTS for
customer-impacting SDC migration projects are:– Doug Wood: customer migrations– Jennifer Cox: firewall migrations
Agency Implementation Coordinators• The primary point of contact for each
impacted agency was identified as the Agency Implementation Coordinator (AIC).
22
The Project Managers work individually with each agency to schedule planning meetings before each migration.
CTS hosts a monthly AIC meeting to share status updates and respond to questions.
This approach has been extremely successful when coordinating these complex activities.
