25.2 URP 2.13.2 Oct 29, 2019 UAT: now - Oct 25 PSD Upgrade of URP (to version 2.13.2) planned between 14-15Z. SSC-DV will also perform wxapps server reboot (between 1445-15Z) to upgrade security.

URP 2.13.2 includes the following changes (and MSC Mantis #): - Radar site clean-up (for S, C, X band): 21025; - URP products rationalization: 20864; - PRECIP-ET config change: 20782; - Drop-dead times added for WUL PA products: 20922; - Removal of MICRO and GUST algorithms: 21016; - Restoration of KMBX data for Western Region: 21069

.

1. RI Planning/Scoping/Components: Upgrade of URP (to version 2.13.2) planned between 14-15Z. SSC-DV will also perform wxapps server reboot (between 1445-15Z) to upgrade security.

URP 2.13.2 includes the following changes (and MSC Mantis #):

- Radar site clean-up (for S, C, X band): 21025;

- URP products rationalization: 20864;

- PRECIP-ET config change: 20782;

- Drop-dead times added for WUL PA products: 20922;

- Removal of MICRO and GUST algorithms: 21016;

- Restoration of KMBX data for Western Region: 21069

2. RI Testing: UAT is progress on CMC urpx dev1 servers. NTTO completed Integration testing.

3. RI Deployment: RFC's for both URP 2.13.2 and wxapps server reboot have been approved. PSD will not take part in deployment call but coordination will be managed via email to RI managers.

4. RI Dependencies: None.

5. Risks: None identified.

25.2 No
25.X IFW Ubuntu Upgrade (IFWUU) All IFW's upgraded by the week of Nov 18-22, 2019

**DELAYED**

Note: Deployment will likely include new IFW hardware (Z4G4 boxes).

Live UAT in progress on 18.04 IFW's (ops01/cmac01) All forecasters Synopsis: Upgrade of IFW OS from Ubuntu12.04 to 18.04. Desktop manager will remain KDE. New IFW hardware (Z4G4 boxes) will be included in scope for this RI if new hardware is proven to resolve blocker issues. 

RI Notes: Blocker display issues continue to pose a risk of further delays. SSC are dedicating significant resources in an attempt to resolve these display issues. NTTO are meeting weekly with RI managers and PSH to provide updates and discuss issues.

1. RI Planning/Scoping/Components:

- Upgrade of IFW OS from Ubuntu12.04 to 18.04. Desktop manager will remain KDE. New IFW hardware (Z4G4 boxes) will be included in scope for this RI if new hardware is proven to resolve blocker issues. 

- Renaming of all IFW's according to new national SSC standard. https://ecollab.ncr.int.ec.gc.ca/theme/pnp-npp/priv/RI/RIAdmin/18.04-IFW-Names.xlsx

- Maintain user accounts

- 18.04 release of URP-IV (2.4.0) client to accommodate 6 minute S-band data. 19693.

2. RI Testing: Live UAT in progress.

3. RI Deployment: Blocker display issues have resulted in delay of deployment. SSC are dedicating significant resources in an attempt to resolve these display issues. NTTO are meeting weekly with RI managers and PSH to provide updates and discuss issues.  SSC estimates it will take 1-2 hours to complete upgrade each IFW. The plan is to upgrade 2 IFW's at a time per office but multiple offices can be updated at the same time.

4. RI Dependencies: RI25.0 NinJo 3.4 deployment requires that the 18.04 IFW be deployed first.

5. Risks:

a. It is not certain if SSC will be able to resolve all IFW issues before deployment.

b. Ability to ensure all forecasters get 18.04 IFW setup before full deployment.

1. NTTO to setup deployment meeting. 25.3 No
25.X IFW Box (Hardware) Upgrade Late November 2019 TBD A few of the new boxes are being evaluated as part of the 18.04 IFW OS upgrade (IFWUU). Synopsis: Upgrade of NinJo CPU boxes (hardware). The new hardware has been delivered to all locations and is already being tested/evaluated in a few locations as part of the18.04 IFW OS upgrade (IFWUU).

RI Notes: The new IFW hardware may end up being deployed as part of the IFWUU deployment if testing/evaluation determines the new hardware resolves IFWUU blocker issues.

1. RI Planning/Scoping/Components: Upgrade of IFW CPU boxes (hardware) to Z4G4 model.

2. RI Testing: The new hardware has been delivered to all locations and is already being tested/evaluated in a few locations as part of IFWUU. If testing is successful in those few locations, the new hardware would be setup in all remaining locations (including one critical IFW per office).

3. RI Deployment: As indicated, the new IFW hardware will likely be deployed as part of IFWUU, but only if the new hardware is proven to resolve blocker issues.

4. RI Dependencies: Dependency is developing with IFWUU.

25.2 No
25.0-part2 NinJo 3.4 (WPR1.5, Tsunami) + Scribe RI25. 0-part2: NinJo 3.4:  December 3, 2019

**DELAYED**

RI25.0-part2 is ready for deployment but is waiting for the 18.04 IFW to be deployed first. Testing completed. Synopsis: RI25.0-part1 (Scribe. WxO, WeatherCAN, DMS) was deployed on September 24. RI25.0-part2 (NinJo 3.4) is certified for deployment but is waiting for 18.04 IFW deployment to be completed.

RI Notes:  RI25.0-part2 (NinJo 3.4) deployment date is DELAYED again due to 18.04 IFW deployment delays.

1. RI Planning/Scoping/Components: NinJo 3.4 MSC config release (including WPR-O Release 1.5 and deployment of Tsunami alerts in MWAS) plus changes to Scribe.

2. RI Testing: Testing completed.

3. RI Deployment: RI25.0-part1 (Scribe. WxO, WeatherCAN, DMS) was deployed on September 24. RI25.0-part2 (NinJo 3.4) is delayed again given delay in 18.04 IFW deployment.

4. RI Dependencies: NinJo 3.4 must be deployed on 18.04 IFW.

5. Risks:

- Further delays in IFWUU could continue to delay deployment of NinJo 3.4.
