IT – Important: Nasdaq Nordic Primary Data Center Relocation Pre-Production test (30/16)


 

This IT-Notice is being issued to clarify ongoing Genium INET Pre-Production tests taking place during May 30 – June 4. 


General Information

Clarification regarding the ongoing Genium INET Pre-Production tests. Members that connect from a production environment should take necessary precautions when conducting tests towards Genium INET Pre-Production. Please make sure that when you conduct these tests you can remove test trades from your system afterwards, so test data is not incorporated into your Production system. If you are unsure how this will impact you, we recommend that you install a temporary test application to verify your Pre-Production setup.

This includes all applications that connect to Nasdaq Genium INET Pre-Production system.



Nasdaq Clearing Workstation 1

Clarification for  members verifying Clearing Workstation 1 for Nasdaq Pre-Production system. Connecting to Genium INET Pre-Production system from a Production Clearing Workstation 1 (CW1)  instance can pose risk of contaminating your production system with test data.

We recommend Clearing Workstation 1 users to do the following to minimize risks when verifying Genium INET Pre-Production.
 

  •  Please always have a backup of the CW1 database before doing any tests.
     
  • Members that connect to Pre-Production from a Production CW1 instance need to do a “renewdb” to flush test position. You can find more info if needed in the Clearing Workstation Installation Guide section 5.4.4. http://www.nasdaqomx.com/digitalAssets/102/102696_cw1_ig_nordic_va1799.pdf


Remember to execute the “renewdb” command from your Clearing Workstation server. Do not forget to include the instance number as well. By renewing the database you are clearing your local database and download a fresh set of data from the exchange.
A “renewdb” can take a couple of hours to perform so it is recommended to do a “renewdb “ after office hours to ensure production connectivity.

 

  • If you are unsure how this will impact you we recommend that you install a temporary instance to verify your Pre-Production setup.
