Issues

- Issue 4: Strategic issue with Networks team, in that they have not approved the metro stretched cluster on the LIVE environment. This will prevent the move to LIVE by mid-February. This has been escalated to senior management via Service management. Evaluation at beginning of February will determine the strategy, either move management ensure Networks approval to LIVE or we halt the work and move it out to after the Wiki upgrade.

RAG Commentary
Issue 3: Dependency on WIKi Project has moved the Project beyond the original plan into the next year.
Issue 4: Strategic decision for the metro stretched cluster moving to LIVE needs to be made. This has been outstanding on the Networks team for over 18months. Cannot set new target for milestone until this has been completed. Decision to complete before the WIKi upgrade needs to be made by senior management team, for which PM will plan accordingly.
