  1. Started looking yesterday at provider issues with staff, in touch with Scott from Columbia, pointed out some things to look at with instructors.
    • Issue: instructors look like they're not provided. SAK-202.
    • Also, tracked back SAK-201.
    • Started organizing DNS changes for SmartSite.
    • Request from Babette about marketing analysis
    • Breeze stuff
    • Performance problems, CPU spikes, expensive garbage collection (question)
    • Got in touch with Aron about latest JVM settings, installed on test
    • Need to check on removing internal user accounts to enhance consistency
  2. Today, did code review of course service updated yesterday. Took out hardcoded strings. Added error checking for variables from Sakai properties.
  3. New task: to do remote jconsole setup – because the instances are headless – Jon may be able to help, uses VNC.
  4. Meetings: attended Sakai Architect monthly meeting yesterday, Vet Med and School of Med was there, got mandate from Pete Siegel to come up with common arch. Vet Med said "no changes", School of Med said "want Vet Med's arch". Main argument, they have their own staging databases.
