[Zope] How many houres do I need to manage a Zope site?

2000-10-25 Thread Diny van Gool

Hi,

The management team wants to know how many hours are necessary to keep the
faculty Zope site running. I have to make a summary of hours necessary for
the technical system management such as software releases, database
management, fixes etc. Developing or installing new features is not to be
included.

Configuration:
Zope version: 2.2.2
Windows NT 4.0
Installed products: FSSession, LocalFS, Refresh, Squishdot, TinyTable,
UserDB, XMLDocument, XMLWidgets, ZODBCDA, ZSQLMethods

1. How many Zope releases per year can I expect and how much time do I need
per release?
2. How much time do I need for product releases and fixes?
3. How much time do I need for Zope database management? Besides a regular
backup and packing the Data.fs are there other things necessary?

Do I miss important tasks? Has anybody done this before?

Thanks,

Diny

One major, four or five minor and three or four hotfixes. Schedule a 
day for the major, half a day each for the rest.

2. How much time do I need for product releases and fixes?

Each product will need to be tested and implemented so half a day for 
each major release. If you modify the products of course it will be 
longer.

3. How much time do I need for Zope database management? Besides a regular

Very little. Pack it when it gets too big (once a week) or set a cron 
to do it... oh sorry, NT... set a AT command to do it.

Yeah.. rebooting NT every 4 days. :)
