*U**pdate #2 - *The exercise is being extended until tomorrow (May
10th). An exact time has not yet been set. A status meeting is
set for
late afternoon today. An additional update will be sent as soon as
information becomes available.*
Update #1 -* The exercise is being extended until a time TBD (could be
this afternoon or tomorrow). PDA users will continue to get their JPSS
-- SNPP and J1/N20 data via PDA at CBU until that time. (The CIP
portion of the test ended yesterday, so legacy data is now only at PDA
at NSOF/OPS.) We will send the exact time of failback as soon
as known.

*Topic:Planned Consolidated Backup (CBU) Exercise from Fairmont, WV
Facility*
Date/Time Issued: May 9, 2018 1755 UTC
Product(s) or Data Impacted: NOAA-20/S-NPP/GCOM-W1 products
Date/Time of the Initial Impact: May 8, 2018 1200 UTC
Date/Time of Expected End: May 10, 2018 1300 UTC
Length of the Outage:see details below
Details/Specifics of Change:
All NOAA-20/S-NPP/GCOM-W1 data processing and flight/satellite
operations will be failed over to the Consolidated Backup (CBU) site at
Fairmont, WV on May 8, 2018 in support of a test tour backup
capability.
The purpose of the exercise is to ensure the ability to failover
NOAA-20/S-NPP/GCOM-W1 for both flight and data operations to the CBU.
The CBU Facility Backup Exercise will begin at approximately 0800 EDT /
1200 UTC on May 8, 2018. During that planned time:
*
NOAA-20/S-NPP/GCOM-W1 product generation and distribution from CBU
will run for approximately 25 hours; expected end on May 9 at 0900
EDT / 1300 UTC when data operations will be transferred back to the
primary facility at NSOF
*
IDMZ services will be transferred to CBU for approximately 48 hours
*
Flight/satellite operations portion of the test will run for
approximately 48 hours as noted before.
Important Note: NDE/PDA users may see up to a hour delay in data
receipt
during the initial start of NDE/PDA operations from CBU. When data
services return back to the NSOF primary system, residual data
may still
be in the queue at the CBU NDE/PDA backup.
Although the COOP exercise will conclude on May 10, 2018 at 0900 EDT /
1300 UTC, Flight/satellite operations and IDMZ services will operate
from CBU for an additional few days.
In the event a Critical Weather Day (CWD) is declared on that start
date, the exercise would be canceled and it will be rescheduled for
following day (May 9, 2018) or the following week (May 15–17, 2018)
depending on the length of the critical weather event.
