Topic:	Notification of planned ESPC Product Outage/Delay due to an
abbreviated failover exercise

Date/Time Issued: July 22, 2014 1417 UTC

Date/Time of Initial Impact:  July 23, 2014 1500 UTC

Date/Time of Expected End:  July 23, 2014 1600 UTC

Product(s) or Data Impacted:  All ESPC products will be affected.

Details/Specifics of Change: The Environmental Satellite Processing
Center
(ESPC) plans to perform an abbreviated failover to the Critical
Infrastructure Protection (CIP) site on Wednesday, July 23, 2014
at 1500
UTC.

The purpose of the exercise is to conduct an abbreviated failover
exercise
at the remote CIP Facility to verify external user and Office of
Satellite
and Product Operations (OSPO) Satellite Analysis Branch access in
the event
of a catastrophic failure at NOAA Satellite Operations Facility (NSOF).
 Testing will include an MPLS failover. No data or products will be
distributed from the CIP.  An one (1) hour delay will occur.

The exercise will not be done on a Critical Weather Day, or if
there are
other significant operational issues warranting postponement.  If a
Critical Weather Day is declared on July 23, 2014, this planned
work will
be postponed.  No date past July 23, 2014 has been planned, and will
require a new notification.
