SHORT DESCRIPTION: MOSTML and Outage Scheduler Performance Improvements
INTENDED AUDIENCE: ERCOT Market
Participants
DAYS AFFECTED: September 2,
2008
LONG DESCRIPTION: To address performance issues
with ERCOT MOSTML and Outage Scheduler, ERCOT initiated measures to upgrade
listener applications. ERCOT will
implement corrective measures in two phases.
Starting September 2, 2008 at 9AM,
ERCOT will migrate the Outage Scheduler application. A new URL will be deployed through Texas
Market Link (TML) for the Outage Scheduler. Market Participants accessing Outage
Scheduler will need to access TML and select Outage Scheduler and save as new
“favorite”.
For the second phase, ERCOT will migrate MOSTML and listener
application to new hardware later in September. ERCOT will send a market notice when
this is to occur. ERCOT will have
the MOSTML setup in Market Operation Testing Environment (MOTE) August 28, 2008
for Market Participants to test with the new listener. An ERCOT test digital certificate is
required to access MOTE.
ERCOT
will provide instructions in the next market notice for Market
Participants using API connection to ERCOT MOSTML to setup new IP addresses (WAN and
Internet) in advance of second phase migration.
