Migrating to the Solaris Operating System: The Discipline of UNIX-to-UNIX Migrations

After all implementation and management activities have been finished, it is time to disband the team and close the project. However, before this is done, a few key activities must be completed:

• Obtaining the customer's formal acceptance of all deliverables from the project

• Evaluating the delivery of the output and solution against the measurable objectives outlined at the beginning of the project

• Capturing important lessons learned for the next migration project

• Filing all deliverables and documentation so that other parts of the organization can review the project

These activities effectively return control of the environment to the normal operations team, dissolve the project structure, and feed the results of the migration to the project sponsors.
