9.0 Stress Test Results
  • Giuseppe Montalto

4
Stress Testing Approach
  • Purpose is to ensure 9.0 performs on par with 8.8
  • Performing an apples to apples comparison of
    8.8 to 9.0
  • Testing being performed on identical hardware
  • Testing on 9.0 to be done on results from Dry Run
    2
  • Using Open Demand for testing scripts
  • Using Symantec I3 to monitor the CPU and memory
    of the Web and Application layers
  • Scripts selected for known performance issues and
    as a result of trouble shooting Forest Service
    performance issues

10
Approach for Addressing Open IRs
  • John Ward

11
Defect Problem Report (DPR)
  • Post Production 9.0 DPRs will be submitted to the
    Help Desk to be assigned an IR number in Remedy.
  • Remaining Open Quality Assurance Testing (QAT)
    and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) DPRs (cat 2
    3) will also be submitted for an IR number in
    Remedy.
  • All IRs (from DPRs) will keep the assigned
    priority.
  • Once DPRs are assigned IR numbers the DPRs will
    be closed and the IR will be worked through the
    normal IR process.

12
IR Resolution Strategy
  • Development team will implement the Tiger Team
    approach that was used prior to the code freeze.
  • The team will begin with higher priority IRs and
    work through the IR backlog.
  • Higher priority IRs will take precedence over
    lower priorities as new IRs are reported.
  • All IRs will go through the standard process.
  • QA Test Team will coordinate User Acceptance Test
    (UAT) and be responsible for obtaining migration
    certificates.
  • IR fixes will be migrated on the normal weekly
    schedule once migration certificate is received.

55
9.0 vs. 8.8 Security Comparison (cont)
  • Although EmpowHR 9.0 will utilize the Dept
    Security Tree as the backbone of data security
    (as does EmpowHR 8.8), the existing customized
    data architecture will be rolled-back

New DEPTID Permission Lists will need to be
created and assigned to users in 9.0

Refresh process of security tables required to
update application security in 9.0

56
9.0 vs. 8.8 Security Comparison (cont)
  • The Row Security field value in the User Profile
    gt General page will always be a permission list
    and not an OPRID

57
9.0 Distributed Security
  • Security administrators can distribute some or
    all user profile administration tasks by enabling
    selected users to use the Distributed User
    Profiles component to control the granting of
    selected roles to other users.
  • Driven by DHS-110 and will impact all agencies

58
Impact of 9.0 Security on Agencies
  • EmpowHR team will work with agencies to define
    new business processes based on detailed analysis
    and comparison of customized 8.8 security and
    delivered 9.0 security
  • Security administration
  • centralization vs. de-centralization (distributed
    security impact)
  • Application security update process
  • delivered 9.0 refresh processes
  • Change management plan
  • training for 9.0 delivered security
  • communication of 9.0 changes

59
Benefits
  • Reduction of overall customizations (facilitates
    future upgrades)
  • Required for implementation of AWE
  • Increased security administration flexibility
    (distributed security)

60
Current Project State
