[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] We're live at last!

[Deanna Frazee]

Although our migration has been slower than turtles running through
peanut butter, we have finally gone live on Evergreen v.1.6.0.6!
Hooray!  

 

We have been live since Thursday, at which time my local server decided
to have serious problems.  Thankfully, Alpha-G Consulting was able to
bring us up on one of their servers while we got ours going again.  I
now know things I never imagined needing to know, such as how to wipe
out and create virtual disks.  And I extremely thankful that John Craig
is an incredibly patient man since he had to walk me through setting up
RAID, hot spares and Ubuntu over the telephone yesterday without any way
to see what I was doing.  Thankfully, he can connect remotely from this
point on and get everything back in place because I really don't know
that anyone should have to walk me through that on top of everything
else.  

 

There are still kinks to work out, but most of my staff and patrons seem
very happy with Evergreen.  And just a few minutes ago, I discovered the
very cool Toggle Button Bar.  I suppose it has been there all along and
I just ignored it during all the time we were testing the ILS, but I
would like to think it just appeared last night.  Either way, it made my
circ staff very happy when I showed it to them.  It was worth coming in
on a Saturday just to hear them shouting, "Holy moly, this is cool!"
The patrons, on the other hand, just edged away from the crazy circ
people.
