Machine Name | Machine Purpose | Notes | Image |
---|---|---|---|
akasha | This seems to have been a staging area for new
client and server builds of the WorldsAway software. |
John Onusko's workstation | |
a-tuin | |||
excelsior | Not sure if this was for WorldsAway,
or an internal Fujitsu Software Corporation server. |
||
ishtar | Potentially a mail server. | ||
goblin | |||
kirk | A server used by the QA team for testing. It may have
potentially been the world server for the Hallway world. |
Usually used for QA testing, it was also used as a backup machine
if a-tuin was down for more than three hours. This was a red-line option to be considered in case of catastrophic hardware failure on a-tuin, not for 'routine' machine lock-ups. From January 1997: Three qa servers now in place on kirk test - For QA test automation and performance analysis only - port 10060 qaone - For QA (QA only) - port 10070 qatwo - For development and production scripting - port 10080 |
