The old Big Baran hardware that has supported ISPG, Farrer and Silo for many years has been decommissioned. Most of the web services were migrated to a new virtual server (apww03.csu.edu.au). The OS changed from FreeBSD to RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) according to CSU Infrastructure Standards.

Your system manager hasn't had much experience with RHEL and made a few mistakes. Fortunately nothing was a computing Showstopper.

In the process I was able to upgrade Moodle to 3.1. There's some assets missing that I'll have to get them copied from the old server.

Thanks to Bob Hay for guiding me through this migration.

Moodle 2.5 had reached end-of-life support so I had to upgrade to 2.6. 2.7 was available so I upgraded again to this latest version. There was some incompatibility with the Assignment tool but I was able to upgrade using a provided tool.

Please report any problems with Moodle to the Administrator.

This was a more than minor upgrade but it went smoothly.
