HostnameDescriptionNaming Convention

H1

Host system for Registration System.

Use a 2-3 letter convention to describe the host's main function. As the purpose of the host can easily change we use a generic name, S1 for system 1.

RGH1V1WEB1

Runs Apache Web Server.

RG = Registration = Overarching Project Code
H1= Hardware 1 = Physical Hardware or Hosting Site
V = Virtual server = Denotes this is a virtual server, P would mean physical
1 = The first virtual server with allowance for relation to a corresponding server, in this case just one application server
WEB = Function
1 = The server designation in the series.

RGH1V1APP1

Runs Tomcat Application Server and HypSQL Database Server.

This has both an application and database. Because the database is portable and more easier to move, we make the judgment call to name the system APP after the more primary long term function of the server.

The convention follows but notice the 1 in MGH1V1APP1.

The zero visually places this server with the correspond Web Server.
