Launch Preparations
Week of October 11 - Pre-production environment opens with production IDs and
passwords
To ensure that Members have properly configured their trading applications and
clearing application, the pre-production environment is open for test of
connectivity, logon and trade the week starting October 11. This week, test is
only possible using production IDs and passwords.

Please note, if you are changing the source IP address used for your upcoming
production environment, Derivativesuser@nasdaqomx.com has to know this to
update the IP authorization services. If you are unsure, contact your network
department.
The pre-production system will be reset and cleared from earlier testing. All
current trader IDs from CLICK production will be migrated. All new Clearing
Workstations IDs created in the Genium INET pre-production environment will be
kept (including the Clearing Workstation client IDs set up by the members
themselves).
Participants should use this week to connect from their upcoming Genium INET
production environments with production accounts and passwords towards Nasdaq
OMX pre-production environment. This is valid for both front-office
applications as well as back-office applications.
NASDAQ OMX recommends that these tests are done as early as possible and no
later than October 15.
During this week NASDAQ OMX will follow the trading schedules, system hours and
operations routines applicable to production. There will not be any simulated
test events of any type. This week is the last opportunity for members to trade
in pre-production.
Week of October 18 - Launch week
An updated launch-plan will be published at the start of the week.
Pre-production will be open for login tests during launch week, with normal
login hours, until Wednesday October 20th. All markets will be closed, no
trading is allowed. In case login tests are not possible from your production
environment until Saturday launch weekend, please ensure at least connectivity
tests (telnet) are done in the week for all applicable ports.
