Notes:

Seba

• VM at SYR needs upgrade 18->22 complete
• Terraform upgraded to 1.4 and added more backups
• Nagios monitors re-configured
• AWS level backups (snapshots of VMs) added for all servers; taken weekly; rotate monthly - will be a very low cost
• Truncating DV database - running as a chron job biannually in backups

Seba + Jim

• MySQL database was picking up wrong version for backups through Chef - Seba fixed, Jim asks about how to fix in future
• • Can be changed in GH but has to actually touch the Chef server for the change to be updated

Jim

• Mirroring messages from QDR and OIDC - jim turned setting back on
• OIDC is priority
