Windows 7 Migration Migration from Window XP to Window 7
Description of Process • Image Build • Create a Windows 7 (64 bit) image with all software and drivers pre installed • Application Test • Verify all third Party application in new OS environment • Deployment • Pre-deploy image to all workstations • Trigger local re-image process • Training • Ensure employees understand how to use new system
Image Build • Risks • Changing Image Technology • Changing from 32 bit to 64 bit OS • Local peripheral driver installation • Mitigation • Testing time reserve • Budget for replacement hardware • Consequence • Mission failure • Unable to proceed, project delayed until resolved • Impact rating • Likelihood - 2 • Consequence - 5
Application Compatibility Testing • Risks • Third Party application incompatible • Browser incompatible • Switch to Microsoft Office 2010 • Mitigation • Testing time reserve • Verification with Vendors • Consequence • Significant Delays • Require changes/upgrades to supported version • Impact rating • Likelihood - 4 • Consequence - 3
Deployment • Risks • Bit locker • Incomplete image pre-deployment • Network Load • Failure to boot • Mitigation • Testing image on all device types • Verification process for deployed files • Rolling deployment • Pre-Imaged machines for emergency deployment • Consequence • Variable • Dependant on occurrence rate • Ranges from catastrophic to minor • Impact rating • Likelihood - 2 • Consequence - 3
Training • Risks • Inability to use new environment • Reduced productivity • Mitigation • Survey user base to determine familiarity • Provide communication to users • Staff on location day off • Consequence • Limited impact • Previous upgrade of Office succeed with limited training • Impact rating • Likelihood – 4 • Consequence - 1
Risk Acceptance and Mitigation • Application Compatibility • Time Reserve = 30% of allotted time (20 days) • Budget Reserve = 30% of Annual Software Maintenance Budget ($120,000) • Research Alternate Application hosting (20 days) • Image Build • Time Reserve = 30% of allotted time (10 days) • Budget Reserve = 10% of peripheral hardware cost • Deployment • Purchase and Pre-image 10% of single deployment phase (12 machines @ $700 ea) • Training • Accepting
