discussion on future of sharepoint

All

  • What do we want and not want from share point?

  • Observatory has chosen SharePoint as one of its primary tools for internal information storage and organization

  • Can also be used as external

  • Plan is to have 3 areas

    • One visible to everyone internal

    • One only for invited users

    • One for only the user

  • Creation of the structure is being done by contractor

  • Not meant to replace pubic web pages

  • Likely SA use case is document sharing

  • Confluence/Atlassian Suite not going away

  • Kyle: what is going away?

    • twikis are going away

    • dropbox is going away

  • Kyle: what about KeckShare?

    • Leslie is in charge of this

  • Randy: primary use cases for us

    • Sharing with other departments (e.g. OAs, AO)

    • Sharing files with collaboration

    • Temporary passing of files to users

  • Jim: there is a 10GB file transfer limit

    • Storage is much higher, but this limits us

UNO phased implementation plan

Randy and Carolyn

  • Phase 1

    • UNO like ops on K1

    • Without complete systems

    • Personnel on summit

  • Phase 2

    • UNO like ops on K1 and K2

    • complete systems

    • personnel remain on summit

  • Phase 3

    • UNO operations on K1 and K2

    • no personnel on summit

    • backup plans in place

  • Phase 1 starting pretty soon

  • Jim: should we try to get earlier release of instruments

  • VWA requires dome lights to go on

    • During early phase, then NAs go in

    • Will now always be needed before operations

  • Jim: would like SIAS task to release some instruments (e.g. LRIS) first

  • During Phase 1, some responses may be slower as we try the “UNO way” first. Guideline is 15 minutes of UNO attempts before failing over to on site methods

  • There is a review 2 weeks from now

  • Still getting cameras and microphones set up for drip detection

  • Everyone please look over UNO plan (was shared by Carolyn to SA group)

  • There are charge codes for UNO instruments
