IT – Nasdaq Nordic Primary Data Center Relocation Project Update (20/16)


This IT Notice includes instructions for mandatory activities for ALL customers and service providers with connectivity to Nasdaq Nordic and Nasdaq Baltic.

Due to customer requests, we have extended the testing period for the Genium INET pre-production login tests. Genium INET Pre-Production system in VASBY will be available until April 23rd. The login test will be available for members using Trading Workstation (TW), Clearing Workstation1 (CW1), 3rd party applications using OMnet and FIX, GV Portal and Trade Guard.

Members that haven’t yet tested the connectivity are advised to do so as soon as possible. The login test can be made at any time corresponding to the table below. After completion of the test it is mandatory for members to fill in a status report and send the report to
technicalrelations@nasdaq.com. This is to inform Nasdaq the result of the test and to confirm your migration readiness status. The status report to be returned is attached to this IT-Notice but is also available for download: http://www.nasdaqomx.com/digitalAssets/102/102413_genium-inet-vasby-login-test-readiness-form.pdf

To minimize member impact all users and passwords currently configured on the Nasdaq Genium INET Lunda Production system will be configured on Genium INET Pre-Production in VASBY. IP source validation will be removed during the test.

Please note that it is not possible to login to Genium INET with Clearing Workstation 1 (CW1) during weekends due to a security feature in the CW1 server. When a login attempt is made, the CW1 server does a local check at the date and if the date is not a business day, the login is cancelled. Due to this, members who wish to test connectivity from their Clearing Workstation 1 are advised to test during weekdays or test the connectivity by Telnet during the weekends.

Members testing FIX connectivity can only login on the primary FIX gateway since only one FIX gateway can be active. A FIX failover test will be arranged in the next test phase commencing May 30th.
