Server move document

I got asked if I have a server move document to aid in the server move process by Norman, a Project Manager for a medium business in Wales, it’s actually something I’m working on and will publish shortly.

Norman is moving from their old data center to a new one, he has 170 mixed serves running unix and Windows and needed a document which he could issue to the engineers in the technical team.  Off the top of my head, the information I would need would be:

Server name – Accounts1

Asset number/serial number – 8KZ283TY8

Operating system – Windows 2003

Make and Model – HP DL380 G3

Current IP address – 10.11.101.13 / 255.255.255.0 / 10.11.101.254

New IP address – 10.22.110.11 / 255.255.255.0 / 10.22.110.254

Current Lights out IP – 100.11.234.25 / 255.255.255.254 / 10.11.234.245

New Lights out IP – 10.9.17.20  / 255.255.255.0 / 10.9.17.254

SAN Storage – Y/N – with World wide addresses if appropriate

Current cabinet – AJ11

New cabinet – A01

Anyway, I’ll put something together online shortly. We need to distinguish between the core information and an audit document for everything involving the move.
