Overview
An Infrastructure Disaster Recovery test was conducted on the weekend of the 18
th
and 19
th
of April 2009. The scope of the infrastructure being tested included the components that are
utilised by the Queensland Health Implementation of Continuity Solution (QI'IIC) being
implemented by the IBM Project Team.
The infrastructure disaster recovery testing attempted to simulate a full and partial data
centre failure by testing the successful failover of each infrastnucture component that
supports the QHIC solution. The test was carried out for both the Windsor and Edward Street
data centres. Upon completion of the testing, the infrastructure components were returned to
their normal state.
the preparation for this test included careful planning of scenarios to simulate a full and
partial failure of data centres. Appropriate testing plans for each scenario were developed.
A detailed communication plan which included test scenarios, high level activities to be
conducted and timeframe was developed, agreed and communicated to all parties involved
prior to the weekend.
During the week prior to the testing weekend, appropriate test accounts were created and all
parties involved (Corptech, CITEC & Queensland Health) were confirmed for readiness for
the weekend activities.
The planned scenarios were all completed successfully within the planned time and with
CorpTech and Queensland Health validations.
This report contains an overview of testing activities that occurred on the weekend of 18
th
and 19
th
of April 2009. It details the issues encountered and resolution actions being taken.
The QHIC Production Network Connectivity diagram for the QHIC solution is attached as
Appendix A in this document.
The Connectivity & Queensland Health End User testing results are summarised in Appendix
B.
The following Addendums accompany this report:

Version Date: 22/04/2009 QHIC Infrastructure Qisaster Recovery Testing Report
Scope
The scope for this infrastructure disaster recovery testing included the failover of the
following components located on both the Edward Street and Windsor sites:
Network - connectivity & communication channels
Production Primary Netscaler (CORPS0077) & Prod Secondary Netscaler
(CORPS0078).
Unix Hosts
Production XI server CXP (SSISAPXIS) on SSISAPP6 and SSISAPP4;
Production Solution Manager CMP (SSISVCMP) on SSISAPP6 and SSISAPP4
Note: CMP supports SAP's Central Processing Scheduling (CPS) used for the
scheduling of batch jobs in the QHIC solution;
Production QHIC HR system HEP (SSISVHEP) on SSISAPPF and SSISAPPC;
Production Workbrain database CWP on SSISAPPF and SSISAPPC;
Production Cognos database CWPCO on SSISAPPF and SSISAPPC.
ESX Hosts
Production SAP Router/Gateway VM SSIMSP27 on SSIMSV10 and SSIMSV12;
Production DNS/NTP/SMTP SSIMSP25 on SSIMSV11 and SSIMSV13.
Microsoft Servers
Production IHS Web Servers SSIMSP28, SSIMSP29;
Production Workbrain Application Servers SSIMSP30, SSIMSP31 , SSIMSP32;
Production WorkBrain Batch servers SSIMSP33, SSIMSP34;
Production Cognos Reporting servers SSIMSP35, SSIMSP36.
The following infrastructure components have been excluded:
XI de-central adapter (SSISAPXID) on SSISAPP7. This server is only used for
the exchange of interfaces files to external systems and the processes associated
with this application were not considered critical and as such were excluded from
the IT Service Continuity perspective.
Production online help server SSIMSP39 on SSIMSV10 and SSIMSV12 ESX
hosts. This was not considered a critical application.

3 Prerequisite
The following components must be in place prior to the Infrastructure Disaster
Recovery Testing:
Virtualisation of Production servers to ESX hosts;
External communications (QH, CorpTechfTreasury, Remote) to primary
Netscaler;
Internal communications from primary Netscaler to both IHS and SAP systems
at both primary and secondary sites;
Internal communications for both SAP and Wor1<brain solutions;
All connectivity for failover scenarios;
All required packaging for ServiceGuard failover.
4 Risks
The Infrastructure Disaster Recovery test involves Production servers and may cause
expected failure of Production systems.
Mitigation:
Test scenarios/Communication Plan did not allow for any issue resolution. It was
agreed that if problems arose during ,the scenarios, technical staff will investigate and
resolve the issue, where possible. Depending on the nature of the issue, appropriate
decision will be made at that point for the course of action to be taken.
5 Test Scenarios

Testing Overview - CITEC perspective
Calls and CITEC work started at about 08:38 on Saturday morning following
notification of successful backups on Friday, 17 April 09 with final calls on Saturday at
17:35. Calls recommenced at 08:00 on Sunday morning following notification of
successful backups on Saturday, 18 April 09 and finished at 16:08.
Work progressed well, with a few minor issues until Scenario 5 when Corpiech
reported an issue with SSIMSU09 then SSIMSQ04 and much later SSIMSA05.
CorpTech raised these issues with the project in case there was a link to this work,
however, this was not the case, the issue was due to a major SAN outage. The SAN
outage impacted CITEC's shared infrastructure with the Virtual Management console
not accessible which was broader than the QHIC testing. CITEC have confirmed that
SSIMSP27 (SAP Router Gateway) can be restored at the secondary site using
specific USER access commands. CITEC operational teams have confirmed and
tested the access.
Testing cont inued successfully to the conclusion of Scenario 6. Scenario 7 was not
possible due to the SAN outage, therefore Scenario 8 was brought forward and
completed but could not be tested as the SAP Router (SSIMSP27) was affected by
the SAN outage. At this point, it was agreed that further testing would be deferred
until the Sunday morning and servers were returned to the Productive state in
readiness for the backup window. CorpTech confirmed servers availability/ readiness
in a Productive state and activity ceased for the day.
The SAN outage was resolved overnight which meant that the servers involved in
QHIC DR testing were returned to the state required at the end of scenario 8, as
agreed with CorpTech and made available for testing to CorpTech at 08:41 on
Sunday. Testing for scenario 7 & 8 was completed before progressing to scenario 9.
The rest of testing throughout Sunday went smoothly with minor issues with
CorpTech confirming that the test was completed at 14:05. Services were returned to
Productive state and tested by CITEC and CorpTech with final confirmation from
CorpTech that everything was tested and ready for service at 16:08 .

Issues
The following issues arose during testing:
Issue 1 - Disabling of SAP SPls and DB SPls prior to commencement of testing
SBT were unable to disable SAP SPls and DB SPls prior to commencement of
testing.
Resolution 1:
USG2 investigated the issue and confirmed that access rights were correct but an
incorrect file path for the SUDO command was used. USG2 ended up disabling the
SAP SPls & DB SPls (prior to scenario 1) and re-enabling SAP SPls & DB SPls in
scenario 15. SBT documentation has been updated to include the absolute file path
for the SUDO command.
Issue 2 - Unmounting filesystem ICEP
To allow failover of the XI Integration server (ssisapxis) from node ssisapp6 to
ssisapp4 (scenario 8), filesystem ICEP needs to be unmounted from ssisapp6 and
then mounted on ssisapp4. An rsync run is started from cron every 10 minutes, but
as the actual runtime of the job - due to the increased number of interface directories
- now exceeds 10 minutes the nex1 run started before the old run was complete. The
result was that filesystem ICEP was accessed all the time and could not be
unmounted.
Resolution 2:
As preparation for the failover, the cron job for rsync needs to be deactivated on node
ssisapp6. Similarly, before XI can fail back to node ssisapp6, the cron job for rsync
needs to be deactivated on node ssisapp4. This has been added to the
communication plan for future reference.
Rsync is currently being used for the synchronisation of interfaces files between the
SAP & XI file servers. As a temporary measure, the cron job for rsync has been
changed to run every 15 minutes, instead of 10 minutes.
Action 2:
As a long term solution, rsync will be replaced with a secure NFS mount between
ssisapxis and ssisapecc. The prerequisite for this activity is to upgrade the operating
system to HPUX version 11 .31 and IPSEC enabled. An RFC is being raised and
work has been planned to complete the HPUX upgrade in Prod & non-Prod
environments by early Aug 09. A separate RFC will be raised to complete the
IPSEC tunnelling solution between the XI & ECC servers. There will also be an
application RFC to address the application and integration issues relating to the
removal of the rsync process from all integration scenarios.
Issue 3 - SFTP connection from Workbrain to XI
After the failover of the XI Integration server (ssisapxis) from node ssisapp6 to
ssisapp4 (scenario 8), the SFTP login failed due to a host key mismatch,
Resolution 3:
As the host keys for servers ssisapp6 and ssisapp4 are different , the SFTP command
had to be initiated manually once on each Workbrain batch server to accept the
changed host key, After the XI integration server failed back to ssisapp6, the SFTP
command had to be initiated manually once again to accept the original host key,
The Workbrain test plan has been updated to inClude this manual initiation step.

Issue 4 - SFTP connection from Workbrain to XI
After the failover of the XI Integration Server (ssisapxis) from node ssisapp6 to
ssisapp4 (scenario 8), the automatic SFTP login via public key from the Workbrain
batch servers to ssisapxis did not work.
Resolution 4:
The ssh-daemon on ssisapp4 was configured in a more restrictive way than on
ssisapp6. Parameter "StrictModes" was set to "no" in file "/opUssh/etc/sshd_config",
which resolved the issue. This parameter change is now permanent.
Issue 5 - Startup of SAP System HEP
After the failover of SAP system HEP on server ssisvhep from node ssisappf to
ssisappc (scenario 8), the SAP system would not start.
Resolution 5:
Environment files /home/hepadm/.sapenv_ssisvhep.csh and
/home/hepadm/.sapenv_ssisvhep.sh on server ssisappc were missing 2 environment
variables for the SNC configuration. These missing variables caused the startup of
the SAP instance to fail. After the environment files were copied from server ssisappf
to ssisappc, the startup of HEP worked fine. Even though these parameters are now
set permanently, care needs to be taken if any future changes are made to
environment files for user hepadm.
The environment files are fairly static. A once a year verification test will ensure all
issues including the environment files are consistent. Note that the environment files
mismatch issue also applies to all Production instances with disaster recovery failover
capability.
Issue 6 - Virtual Machine Failover
The QHIC DR testing over the weekend coincided with an unplanned major SAN
outage at CITEC. The SAN problem revealed an issue with the Windows DR solution
which could not be failed over to the fallback site.
The major issue with the SAN affected any physical and virtual servers connected
and in the context of the QHIC DR testing meant that virtual machine SSIMSP27
(SAP Router/Gateway) was not available and could not be failed across to the
fallback site (scenario 7). At the time of the implementation of the windows DR
project the solution design required "manual failover" and this was to remain in place
until Site Recovery Manager (SRM) was available. MST was unable to failover
SSIMSP27 manually during the outage.
Resolution 6:
The SAN outage was resolved on Saturday night by manually restarting the virtual
machines at the alternate site and the servers involved in QHIC DR testing were
returned to the state at the end of scenario 8. DR testing continued smoothly on
Sunday.
Action 6:
CITEC to implement and test the recovery plans for each resource pool on both
Virtual Machine Consoles for the scripted failover between data centres of the Virtual
Servers as defined in the project scope document.

Lessons Learnt
The following lessons learnt were captured in the Infrastructure Disaster Recovery
Testing - Test Scenarios & Communication Plan (Addendum Al:
The testing time allowed for a number of scenarios were not sufficient. The
communication plan has been updated to reflect a more realistic testing time.
To allow for a more streamline Workbrain test execution, scenarios 12 & 13
have been swapped around.
Added tasks to deactivate & reactivate rsync cron job for scenarios 8 & 10.
Added Workbrain Technical Resource to confirm Workbrain servers at the end
of day 1, after all servers have been returned to production state, ready for
offline backup.

Outstanding Actions
The following actions are outstanding:
a. Virtual Machine failover
An outstanding action for CITEC to implement and test the recovery plans for
each resource pool on both Virtual Machine Consoles for the scripted failover
between data centres of the Virtual Servers as defined in the project scope
document.
b. Usage of rsync to synchronise interface files between SAP and XI file servers.
As a long term solution, rsync will be replaced with a secure NFS mount between
ssisapxis and ssisapecc. The prerequisite for this activity is to upgrade the
operating system to HPUX version 11.31 and IPSEC enabled. An RFC is being
raised and work has been planned to complete the HPUX upgrade in Prod & non
Prod environments by early Aug 09. A separate RFC will be raised to complete
the I PSEC tunnelling solution between the XI & ECC servers. There will also be
an application RFC to address the application and integration issues relating to
the removal of the rsync process from all integration scenarios.

Areas
Support
Risk RS-00221 (300); impact to GoLive date as scheduled activities are occurring outside the normal non-production
support hours (DEV, TST, UAT). Best endeavours agreement in place and activity managed by all effected groups.
This is a low risk, mitigated with the currenl process in place.
Issue IS-00224 (300); documentation of the payrun process and batch schedule. Draft documentation sent Start of
Business 9/3. Review cycles complete with final documents to be delivered on 06104/2009. This with the approval of
CR-000182 and approval of the Payroll and PDR documentation will then close this issue,
Production support environments for post go-live need to be defined based upon Release strategy for QHIC. This has
been deferred until the scope and timing, of Release 2 is known.

SAP GoLive Assessment.
Issue IS-00272 (700); during the creation of data for PPV, the disk space on CWPP was exhausted twice. CWPP is
the database instance for Workbrain and is specified to be a mirror of the production environment. The data created
for PPV represented 8 months of historical time and attendance data with 12 months forward projection of Shifts for
leave balances, etc. This demonstrates a delta between the plan and a potential end state configuration.

available in the import queue from
HEQ to HEU when only a specific
transport is required may cause
untested functionality to be deployed
in the UAT environment.
This may cause an unstable UAT
SAP environment which can cause
unnecessary delays in execution of
scripts.
The ri sk is all defects post 27 March
will not be resolved by IBM prior to
UAT.
There is a potential that more scripts
will fail during UAT as a result of
known existing defects.
UAT could be extended or may not
finish within the agreed timeframe.

A meeting was held earlier this
week regarding this issue with all
impacted parties for UAT. This
include Health, 18M, Service
Management and Technology
Services resources. It has been
agreed that no transports will be
applied into UAT envi ronments
without the approval of the
relevant UAT Manager. The UAT
Manager has the responsibility of
ensuring that transports have
been tested by the IBM test team
before application of transports
into UAT environments. The
Mercury QC will be used to track
this. It is the IBM's test team
responsibimy to priorilise testing
of changes in line with the order of
transport release from
Development.

vO.3: Peter Ritson (for RBchael Hansford) 2009
05-0812:01:15.000000
All released transports will be imported based
on the sequence the transports are released in
the development system. Corptech SAP
Transport Management principles are based on
SAP System Development Life Cycle (SDLC)
recommendations which quite categorically
state you DO NOT manipulate an Import Queue
ie. do not delete OJ alter the sequence of the
requests within the queue. All transports need
to be applied in the same sequential order that
they have been exported from Development.
This to ensure that there are NO
inconsistencies between the source
(development) and the target systems - ie UAT
or Production.

QHIC Performance Interim Report - Round 2 2 CorpTech
Version : 1.0 23/0612009
RTI Document No.1390
1. Executive Summary
1.1. Objectives
The document describes the results, configuration, and test set-up of the online performance
and volume testing - Round 2 conducted for the Qld Health QHIC project .
The objectives were to:
Show the solution is capable of supporting 650 Workbrain and 150 SAP users.
Prove the endurance of Work brain and SAP with an 8 hour run at 150% workload.
Measure the response time of key transactions for Workbrain and SAP under load.
Measure the maximum capacity of the Workbrain system for future expansion.
1.2. Results
Testing has not been completed , round 3 is being planned for August. This document is to
be viewed as an interim report only.
1.2.1. SAP HR (HER)
SAP HR performed well under load, easily handling 225 active users over a period of 8
hours. This is 1.5 times higher than the expected concurrent user base.
1.2.2. Workbrain
. Workbrain hardware was sized to deliver an expected 3,000 concurrent users, but failed to
reliably deliver more than 1,100.
Workbrain scaling issues have returned with 1 s'erver delivering -900 users, but with 3
servers barely handling -1 ,200.
Workbrain was unstable during our load tests, with small failures cascading to the point
where the whole system crashed. These issues have been documented and sent to the
vendor (Infor) for analysis. Defect 3117 raised.
Workbrain will handle the 650 users for QHIC, but it was impossible to sustain 8 hours at
150% workload. For this reason, the Performance Assurance Group does not believe
Workbrain is ready for production.
1.2.3. Citrix
No CITRIX tests were performed in this round of testing.
Please refer to :
"QHIC P&V - Part I - Citrix Scalability Testing - Executive Report" dated 25-Feb-2009.

1.3. QHIC Success Criteria Table
Criteria Success
OLD Health SAP HR to support 150 power users each with 2 SAP Sessions ../
Workbrain to support 650 concurrent users (OLD Health user volume)
-
Benchmark the target system to find its break-point by gradually increasing
the workload up to the maximum number of licensed virtual users.
../
Benchmark the average response times for each of the scripted transactions. ../
No specific target response times have been provided except for the Citrix
presentation layer display. For this, 80% of the transaction executions are
expected to complete within 15 seconds or less for Citrix.
../
SAP system resource utilization at full OHEST user load to be below 80% for
online transactions.
../
Workbrain system resource utilization at full OHEST load to be below 20%.
Note that Workbrain's full target load is 3000 concurrent users. OHEST will
make up 20% of the total concurrent Workbrain user population
X
2. Risks
2.1. Shared environment
The OHIC Preproduction environment was shared during Round 2 test execution between
the PAG and PPV team. While every precaution was taken to ensure the tests were started
on an idle system, there is a possibility that some minor interference went unnoticed.
2.2. Time
A lot of time was spent with IBM trying to diagnose problems with Workbrain scalability.
Time was also lost due to infrastructure issues (flooding) at Herston.
2.3. Stability
Workbrain crashed frequently under load and there was significant time spent waiting for it to
become ready again. The team really needs more time to assess Workbrain's endurance.
Perhaps this test is better left until scalability issues have been addressed.
2.4. Development
Workbrain is still being developed. This report only applies to Workbrain release 0.110.

Version: 1.0 23/06/2009
RTI Document No.1392
3. Caveats
3.1. No comparison
Since the QHIC Solution is a complete new solution there is no comparison possible with
legacy systems.
3.2. Data
Data provided was simplified to enable rapid development of test scripts.
3.3. Execution
Some transactions are not simulated perfectly according to how they are performed in
production due to the complexity of developing those scripts. For example, in production a
person would run a report for a certain ward and report accordingly. In our simulation each
report was executed against QLD Health as a whole. The effective throughput is the same.

5. Test Set-Up
LoadRunner was used to simulate users logging on to SAP and Workbrain from OLD
Health's Test network. A mixture of trans actions identified by OLD Health to be typical of
daily activities were used for the tests.
The distribution of these transactions was a s follows:
Application: SAP Workbrain
Logon 150 650
New appointments 1Create new employee 561 hr n/a
Pay simulation - retrospective 195 1hr n/a
Establishment report 4581 hr n/a
Date monitoring report 4581 hr n/a
Terminations 331 hr n/a
Opening a roster with a large number of sta ff/teams n/a 25001 hr
Searching for employees to fill un-staffed shifts n/a 12501 hr
Processing information in timesheets n/a 74401 hr
Undertaking leave balance reports per team n/a 4581 hr
OLD Health SSP & Lynette Land, Function al Lead Rostering OLD Health, advised us these
transaction numbers based on their estimati ons for the OHIC Solution.
For SAP: Virtual user logins were selected from a pool of 900 unique SAP user accounts.
Each login was assigned a transaction acco rding to the distribution table above.
For Workbrain: Virtual user logins were selected from a pool of 30,000 unique Workbrain
user accounts. Each login was assigned a transaction according to the distribution table
above.
Due to stability problems in Workbrain, an y login that failed any transaction was removed
from the available pool for the rest of that te st to ensure there were no problems re-acquiring
unreleased resources.
A test was considered a success if it compl eted with less than 1 % of transactions failed, an
80 percentile transaction response time under 8 seconds (this does not apply to the
generation of lists/reports) and met the tran saction load target.
The specified target of 15 seconds was sup posed to be applied to the CITRIX experience of
the system, but we did not use CITRIX for this round and so the limit has been lowered to
the standard 8 seconds.
Anything else was considered a failure.

For a period of 8 hours the QHIC SAP system was more than capable of supporting 150% of
the concurrent user load and workload. The overall CPU was averaging around 80% which
is well within the guidelines of the success cr,iteria.
Details of this run, run 16, can be found in section 9, this run will be our baseline run for the

Workbrain will handle the 650 users for QHIC, but it was impossible to sustain 8 hours at 150% workload.
Details of successful run 61, including transaction timing, can be found in section 10, this will be the baseline for round 3.
As from test 49 onwards, the default timeout on browser replies was increased from 120 seconds to 600 seconds. 120 seconds is the Internet
Explorer default that all people would have on their desktops, but at this stage we were giving WorkBrain every opportunity to succeed.

QHIC Performance Interim Report - Round 2 2 CorpTech
Version: 0.2 07/0812009
RTI Document No.1449
1. Executive Summary
1.1. Objectives
The document describes the results, configuration, and test set-up of the online performance
and volume testing - Round 2b conducted for the Qld Health QHIC project.
The objective was to:
Assess the impact between null calc groups and non-null calc groups
1.2. . Results
Testing has not been completed, round 3 is being planned for August. This document is to
be viewed as an interim report only.
1.2.1. Workbrain
The current Workbrain hardware was sized to deliver an expected 3,000 concurrent users
0NoG numbers), but the current Workbrain release 0.139 delivers 1,800 concurrent users
across the solution.
Test results matrix:
Users 1 Server 14 JVMs 2 Servers 18 JVMs 3 Servers 112 JVMs
1000 Crash nfa nfa
900 Crash nfa nfa
800 Crash nfa nfa
700 Crash nfa nfa
600 Pass nla nfa
1200 nfa Pass nfa
1800 nfa nfa Pass
With release 0.139 one server was able to process 600 concurrent users. This is 400 less
than the scalability testing conducted in the first half of 2008; and 300 less compared with
the testing conducted against release 0.110.
There is a third less capacity for one server; when comparing the test results from release
0.110 and 0.139. This drop in capacity (one server) is a concern, e.g.: will this drop in
capacity occur for each release? It is recommended to have this further investigated why
there is a third less capacity in this latest release (what is different between releases 0.139
and 0.11 O?).
Note that release 0.139 contains a fix related to the award rules (Apply Work Detail UDF
Premium Rule).
There is a significant difference in system resource util isation when submitting timesheets
for calc groups compared with NULL calc groups.
In summary: one server provided capacity for 600 concurrent users, two servers handled
1,200 concurrent users and three servers handled 1,800 users. However these results could
QHIC Performance Interim Report - Round 2 3 CorpTech
Version: 0.2 07/0812009
RTI Document No.1450
be found trivial since the result of one server was reduced by a third compared with previous
round of testing (code?).
The overall solution needs to provide capacity for WoG 3,000 concurrent users; therefore
two additional servers will be required .
2. Considerations
It appears that the Workbrain solution may suffer from peliformance/capacity
degradation when award rules are added and/or modified. Therefore it should be
considered once Workbrain is live to perform a regression performance test if there
are any changes to award rules to assess the impact of the implemented change.
Example: in this current release 0.139 one server is able to handle the workload for
600 users while in release 0.110 this was 900 users.
Reduction in capacity for one server. Further investigation needs to occur to assess
why the latest release produces a third less capacity. This needs to be clarified to
avoid a similar impact of future releases.
The primary server in the three-server cluster has higher system resource usage
compared with the other two servers in the cluster. It is unclear what the underlying
reason is: bad workload distribution, performing more activities? This needs to be
investigated to understand if this is normal behaviour or if this can be fixed.
3. Risks
3.1. Shared environment
The QHIC Preproduction environment was shared during Round 2 test execution between
the PAG and PPV team. While every precaution was taken to ensure the tests were started
on an idle system, there is a possibility that some minor interference went unnoticed.
3.2. Development
Workbrain is still being developed. This report only applies to Workbrain release 0.139.
QHIC Performance Inlerim Report - Round 2 4 CorpTech
Version: 0.2 0710812009
RTI Document No.1451
4. Caveats
4.1. No comparison
Since the QHIC Solution is a complete new solution there is no comparison possible with
legacy systems.
4.2. Data
Data provided was simplified to enable rapid development of test scripts.
4.3. Execution
Some transactions are not simulated perfectly according to how they are performed in
production due to the complexity of developing those scripts. For example, in production a
person would run a report for a certain ward and report accordingly. In our simulation each
report was executed against QLD Health as a whole. The effective throughput is the same.

6. Test Set-Up
LoadRunner was used to simulate users logging on to SAP and Workbrain from OLD
Health's Test network. A mixture of transactions identified by OLD Health to be typical of
daily activities were used for the tests.
The distribution of these transactions was as follows:
Application: Workbrain
Processing information in timesheets 7440 I hr
OLD Health SSP & Lynette Land , Functional Lead Rostering OLD Health, advised us these
transaction numbers based on their estimations for the OHIC Solution.
For Workbrain: Virtual user logins were selected from a pool of 30,000 unique Workbrain
user accounts. Each login was assigned a transaction according to the distribution table
above.
Due to stability problems in Workbrain, any login that failed any transaction was removed
from the available pool for the rest of that test to ensure there were no problems re-acquiring
unreleased resources.
A test was considered a success if it completed with less than 1 % of transactions failed, an
80 percentile transaction response time under 8 seconds (this does not apply to the
generation of lists/reports) and met the transaction load target.
The specified target of 15 seconds was supposed to be applied to the CITRIX experience of
the system, but we did not use CITRIX for this round and so the limit has been lowered to
the standard 8 seconds.
Anything else was considered a failure.

7. Results (Summary)
7.1. Workbrain
The matrix describes the several test scenarios executed and its pass or failure status:
Details of each run can be found in section 7.
The default timeout on browser replies was increased from 120 seconds to 600 seconds. 120 seconds is the Internet Explorer default that all
people would have on their desktops, but at this stage we were giving WorkBrain every opportunity to succeed.

4. Overall Status
The project is reporting Amber this week on the basis that:
UAT: The last final payrun and the last interim payrun were processed without short dumps and that gives us some
reason to believe that the payrun process is becoming stable.
UAT: The execution throughput, despite the impact from prior payrun instability, is still on track to hit the 4th October
completion date. Overtime is planned to catch up, but any further impacts from payrun issues will impact the execution
schedule
The project is forecasting to report AMBER next week on the basis that:
UAT: Payruns remain stable and they are executed in the time allotted.
UAT: Defects are delivered on schedule and the total number of outstanding Sev2 and Sev3P1 defects is seen to be
approaching 0 by September 28

adversely impact other UAT

impacts cannot be contained in

Planned management of risk due to code changes for last week of UAT:
From 29
1h
September, all creation of transports/releases for System Testing (and subsequent UAT) will be under the
direct supervision of Mark Dymock.
Mark will ascertain whether he wishes to have the environments locked down by Corptech to ensure that only
transports which he approves will be created.
A transport/release will only be created after consultation with QHEST to confirm the criticality of the fix.
The final 2 payruns will be executed on 30

September and 3"' October. Since 3"' October only allows 1 day of
testing before closure of UAT, this payrun is very much a last resort for retesting defect fixes.

TOPICAL ISSUE No. xxx
Title: Queensland Health Implementation of Continuity (QHIC) Project
OVERVIEW
Work on the Queensland Health SAP/Workbrain payroll implementation commenced early in 2008 as
a joint project between CorpTech and Queensland Health with delivery through a prime contractor,
IBM. The total contract price is approximately $20 million (excluding GST). This.large and complex
project implementation is designed to provide a payroll and rostering solution to over 80,000
employees working under a significant number of different awards.
Implementation of the new solution into Queensland Health will provide major benefits compared to
the current LATIICE and ESP (rostering) solutions including a modern supported solution and
significantly improved functionality.
The CorpTech, Queensland Health and IBM teams had been actively working towards an
implementation date of 16 December 2009.
KEY ISSUES
On 19 October 2009, the Queensland Health Project Board determined that there were outstanding
issues from the user acceptance testing process. Resolution of the outstanding systems issues is
critical to ensure that a viable payroll solution is delivered.
This delay in finalising user acceptance testing results will result in a delay to the go-live for the
solution. As the go-live date was mid-December 2009, it is no longer practical to go-live prior to the
end of 2009 and the gO-live will be deferred until early 2010.
Initial high level indications are that a March 2010 implementation of the solution into Queensland
Health may be possible. An earlier date in 2010 would cause significant difficulties for Queensland
Health due to a-number of factors including the significant intake of new employees and staff
transfers which occur early in the year.
To enable the solution to be implemented as early as possible in 2010, it is critical that IBM resolves
the outstanding defects and provide a viable payroll system by the end of 2009. This payroll system
must be fully tested and deployable without further development work at a future date to be
determined by Queensland Health. In particular both Queensland Health and CorpTech must be
satisfied that the solution will perform in accordance with the documented requirements.
To achieve a go-live in early 2010, the following actions will be required:
CorpTech, Queensland Health and IBM are to remain committed and resourced accordingly to
ensure that the payroll system is built, tested and ready for implementation before the end of
2009;
post December 2009 until go-live, Queensland Health are not to introduce any new requirements;
mandatory changes due to revised enterprise bargaining arrangements may need to be applied
before go-live;
all costs beyond end 2009 are to be met by Queensland Health, as CorpTech cannot sustain the
cost being incurred; and
finalisation of resultant contractual changes with IBM.
RTI Document No.1558
The Director-General, Department of Public Works and Director-General, Queensland Health have
discussed these matters and are supportive of the actions outlined above. Senior Officers from both
agencies have met and will work together to ensure that the actions are implemented.
IMPLEMENTATION I ACTION AGENDA
There is Significant progress being made towards meeting the deployable solution by 18IDecember
2009, and planning for the introduction of the changes required to implement Queensland Health
enterprise bargaining (EB) has commenced.
Contractual payments to IBM are contingent on the attainment of a number of milestone success
criteria. Any costs for delays beyond the deployable solution date will be absorbed by IBM.
Progress on the Queensland Health payroll implementation is being closely monitored by the project
board.

QHIC Performance Interim Report - Round 4 2 CorpTech
Version : 1.0 17/12/2009
RTI Document No.1566
1. Executive Summary
1.1. Objectives
The document describes the results, configuration, and test set-l:Jp of the online performance
and volume testing - Round 4 conducted for the Qld Health QHIC project.
Criteria Success
Workbrain solution is scalable. ../
QLD Health SAP HR to support 150 power users each with 2 SAP
Sessions
../
Workbrain to support 600 concurrent users (QLD Health user volume) ../
Measure the maximum capacity of the Workbrain system for future
expansion.
../
Measure the response time for key transactions. ../
No specific target response times have been provided except for the
Citrix presentation layer display. For this, 80% of the transaction
executions are expected to complete within 15 seconds or less for Citrix,
with none above 30 seconds maximum.
X
SAP system resource utilization at full QHEST user load to be below
80% for online transactions.
../
Workbrain system resource utilization at full QHEST load to be below
20%. Note that Workbrain's full target load is 3000 concurrent users.
QHEST will make up 20% of the total concurrent Workbrain user
population
../
1.2. Results
Round 4 testing has been completed for Workbrain on release 0.177, SAP HR was
completed in Round 3.
1.2.1. SAP HR (HER)
SAP HR performed well under load, easily handling 194 active users over a period of 8
hours. This is 1.3 times higher than the expected active user base. SAP HR for QHIC is
certified for Production Go-Live.
QHIC Performance Interim Report - Round 4 3 CorpTech
Version: 1.0 17/12/2009
RTI Document No.1567
1.2.2. Workbrain
Workbrain scaling issues from round 3 testing have been resolved in release 0.177 .
Workbrain is now scalable. Furthermore, its scalability is linear.
Workbrain hardware was sized to support 3,000 active users. It met this requirement.
Workbrain supports 150% of the predicted QHIC workload.
Workbrain will support the 600 users for QHIC.
Two defects were raised. In both cases, this was due to failing the 80
th
percentile 8 second
response time criterion . Incidentally, the 80
th
percentile 15 second response time criterion
was also not met.
Defect #2289: Processing Roster Load Forms
Defect #2338: Publish Roster in MVS.
Until these defects are resolved the Performance Assurance Group cannot certify Workbrain
for Production Go-Live.
Additional information: it should be noted that for QHIC's workload on the Workbrain
Solution, two application servers (two for redundancy) provide ample capacity
1.2.3. Workbrain Reliability
It should be noted that Workbrain seems fragile and needs more care and attention than
other systems we have tested. System performance and stability are affected from release
to release. Hopefully this will be improved over time as administrators become more familiar
with the product and the volume of development decreases. We recommend that Workbrain
releases be thoroughly tested.
1.2.4. IBM HTTP Server (IHS) vs Netscaler
Users can be load balanced to the Workbrain solution by IHS (IBM preferred software
solution) or by Netscaler (hardware network appliance). The results in this document are
from using the IHS method.
Netscaler delivered significantly better performance for Workbrain transaction times,
particularly for transactions that required a lot of information to be transferred between the
server and the user. At the time of writing, Netscaler could not deliver the Cog nos reporting
part of the solution. Given the significant performance improvement using NetScaler, we
recommend further investigation into the use of NetScaler instead oflHS.
1.2.5. Citrix
No CITRIX tests were performed in this round of testing .

2. Risks
2.1. Development
Workbrain is still being developed. This report only applies to Workbrain release 0.177.
At the time of writing, it appears unlikely that the final production release of Workbrain will be
performance tested due to schedule constraints. Given the observed variation in
performance between releases, we strongly recommend performance testing of the final
production release of the QHIC Workbrain solution.
QHIC Performance Interim Report - Round 4 5 CorpTech
Version : 1.0 17/12/2009
RTI Document No.1569
3. Caveats
3.1. No comparison
Since the QHIC Solution is a completely new solution there is no comparison possible with
legacy systems.
3.2. Data
Data provided was simplified to enable rapid development of test scripts.
3.3. Execution
Some transactions are not simulated perfectly according to how they are performed in
production due to the complexity of developing those scripts. For example, in production a
person would run a report for a certain ward and report accordingly. In our simulation each
report was executed against QLD Health as a whole. The effective throughput is the same.

5. Test Set-Up
LoadRunner was used to simulate users logging on to SAP and Workbrain from OLD
Health's Test network. A mixture of transactions which were identified by OLD Health to be
typical of daily activities was used for the tests.
The distribution of these transactions was as follows:
Application: SAP Workbrain
Logon 150 600
New appointments / Create new employee 10/ hr n/a
Movements - higher duties 99 / hr n/a
Movement extension 31/ hr n/a
Date monitoring report 20 / hr n/a
Terminations 7 / hr 7/ hr
Roster Plot - RLF open, edit, save, edit, submit n/a 30/ hr
Roster Plot Process Roster Load Form n/a 30/ hr
Roster Plot - Publish RLF schedule to MVS n/a 30 I hr
MVS Staff Roster - Create Shifts in MVS n/a 250 I hr
MVS Staff Roster - Book Staff to Sh ift in MVS n/a 250 I hr
MVS - Staff Roster - View n/a 200 I hr
MVS On exception - Change Staff Roster + Publish Schedule n/a 500 I hr
MVS Off exception - Book off staff + Publish Schedule n/a 500/ hr
MVS Off exception Staff Leave Request n/a 500/ hr
Edit time sheets n/a 500/ hr
Daily Staffing Report n/a 200 / hr
Clicker n/a 600 I hr
These transactions and their throughput were provided by OLD Health during several
meetings with key personnel.
For SAP: Virtual user logins were selected from a pool of 900 unique SAP user accounts.
Each login was assigned a transaction according to the distribution table above.
For Workbrain: Virtual user log ins were selected from a pool of 30,000 unique Workbrain
user accounts. Each login was assigned a transaction according to the distribution table
above.
A test was considered a success if it completed with less than 1% of transactions failed , and
the 80th percentile transaction response times were no greater than 8 seconds (this does
not apply to the generation of lists/reports), and the transaction load target was met.
Anything else was considered a failure.

Workbrain handles the 150% workload well with an average CPU load of just below 20%
CPU, which passes the test criterion.
Two defects are preventing Workbrain certification:
o Processing Roster Load Forms; Once a Roster has been submitted for processing
the processing is done in sequential mode and the application does not clean up the
cache whereby each additional roster to be processed consumes more time for
processing since the recalculation is done over and over again for each team
remaining in cache. This is defect #2289.
o Publish Roster in MVS; .Response time exceeds even the CITRIX 15 seconds 80
percentile response time. This is defect #2338.
Once these two defects are resolved Workbrain can be certified.

Executive Summary
The aim of Payroll Performance Verification Test 3 was to perform a regression
test of the solution since the Test 2 conducted in November / December 2008.
Additionally the objective was to determine the performance impact of
conducting large scale EB changes on to the environment. This required six
months of historical data to test against and hence also a validation of the
capacity planning requirements for the solution.
Production environment grade configuration .changes were made during the
course of iteration of the Payroll Performance Validation (PPV) phases to ensure
the accuracy of the testing process. These configuration changes, which include
changes to .sAP Basis configuration (Work Process), can be viewed within the
section Appendix E - T@nslating test results from PPV to Production section. The
production like historical data changes have caused response times to be
marginally greater on average since Phase 2 test ex ecution for all transactions.
Tests were performed in the 90% sized PPV environment with no stubbed Legacy
systems (integration to COP) . Note that care must be taken when attempting to
translate results from this environment to the larger Production environment . A
discussion of this may be found in the Enyl ronment Configuration and Sizing
section of this document.
A series oftests were run as a standard payroll fortnight and an EBA change
payroll fortnight. The QHIC solution met throughput targets at all volumes for the
standard Payroll processing; demonstrating the expected system performance
eight to twelve months post Go-live. At EBA load the solution did' not meet all
throughput targets in the current PPV environment. Specific scenario options for
managing EBA or other special events are captured in the Solution Automation
documentation (see Related Documents).
All tests were conducted as a blackbox test with the level of logging as provided
by the applications themselves, on top of the Iow level sar data from the uni x
hosts. The performance characteristics of the solution will be different from those
reported if a higher level of logging was used .
There are no known environmental performance-related defects, the environment
and infrastructure performed well, with all' available resources being used
effectively. Further performance improvements were planned and validated
during the PPV 4 cycle. For a summary of PPV-related risks, please see the ~
& Mitigations section.
This document has been updated with the successful results from PPV Cycle 4,
which concluded;
No demonstrated degradingo of performance as UAT has progressed. '
Processing times reduced with increased load see Payroll periods (PP)
orocessed,
Validation of the QH Error Handling end to end payroll cycle, inclusive of the
changes made for Pay Sunday (12 noon start) and Pay Monday.
The Test Results section has been updated with the results of the testing.

P?V infrastructure is different
from Production

In addition to different sizing In SAP, the only
major missing component was the CPS setup.
This was not able to be provisioned in the PPV
infrastructure environment. Some minor
response time consideration should be added
when looking at specific response times,
however no Lmpact to the overall end-to-end
response time calculations determined .
2.3 Exit criteria
The following exit criteria state the requirements to be met in order to achieve
completion of the PPV Phase 3 Test cycle.
The exit criteria for PPV Phase 3 Test are:

3.4 Adhoc Payruns
The key timing for Adhoc Payruns, regardless of the volume, is the handling time by the Payroll Bureau to collect the spooled
EFT results before on forwarding to the bank. The entries are made during the course of the business day, as QHSSP staff
perform their actions and create InfoType 0011 records for the adhoc payments. It takes 32mins of handling time to process
and create for a single employee, with the key timing show below;

3.S FAMMIS FI/CO Posting (Standard)
Posting documents have been provided for posting into COP (FAMMIS) for metric gathering of the load into FAMMIS. The first
two rows are SAP Pay Period Pl2: Standard payroll run for the SDK employees. SAP Pay Period Pl3: Application of EBA
during the payrun. So Period Pl2 is indicative of steady state fortnightly postings, with Pl3 indicative of yearly EBA
application.

3.6 On-line and Off-line backups
Timings were taken for the on-line and off-line backups diuring the course of the testing
to determine the end state production timings required for the solution and to validate
the window for the Solution Automation.

The key indication from this data is that the performance of the on-line backup for
Workbraln (CWPP) is poor and would warrant attention. It has been confirmed that this
will be addressed by the proposed back-up solution, with the data protection solution
(back-up and restoration) targeting a two hour ,restoration timeframe utilising an on
line cloning disk array approach.

4.1 Runtime Analysis of Key Transactions

effected by the application of EBA processing. The bulk of the system time taken when

4.1.1 Payroll Reconciliation Report
The Reconciliation Report can't be run via the job splitter as it will not show a complete
reconciliation report while it is not run for all employees (as a single job) this is
because:
The QSuper reconciliation page reads all the data in the file .. not just for selected
employees
The EFT reconciliation page reads all the data in the EFT files" not just for the
sel ected em pi oyees
The FICO posting runs contain summary data by Cost Centre .. not just for the
selected employees.

RTI Document No.1608
Version: 2.0 Payroll Processing
Version Dale.. 16104/2010 OHIC
4.1.2 Exception Report
The Exception Report is current run using five variants, CA_ADMIN, CA_NURSES,
CA_DOCTORS, CA_OPERATIONS, CA_EXECLJTIVES. The CA_NURSES can be split down
further, which will half the overall runtime. Since this is current split on business lines,
would need a determination on what would be relevant, before an additional CPS job
could be created to run a new variant in parallel with the existing ones. The PPV4
Regression timing is worst case, as all Nurses were selected for that test cycle.
However, this woulcl overall add approx 1.5 hours of error handling / manual processing
time to the Monday Pay run (for the EBA case). This is an option available to the
business to break the CA_NURSES and CA_ADMIN into smaller employee sub
groupings.
4.2 Dynamic Job Splitter
An optimisation that is in progress of being developed/deployed for the DoH solution is
dynamic job splitter. There were clear benefits to introduce a tool like that solution into
QHIC, as it can be shown with the spread that split job took to complete during PPV3,
due to imbalance of the workload allocated to each of the splits. This was implemented
and successfully tested during PPV4.
4.3 Workbrain on-line backup
Indicated from the on-line backup metric data gathered, that the performance of the
on-line backup for Workbrain (CWPP) is poor and would warrant attention. While the
CWPP database does have a higher volume of data, it isn't an order of magnitude larger
that the HER instance, which takes under 2 hours to complete. The current six to eight
hour runtime reduces the available batch processing windows for Workbrain, specifically
for the start of day tasks. - This has been incorporated into the back-up requirements
for the QHIC solution, with the recommendation of online back-ups with 'clone'
(ShadowImage) method to be use, as it is non-disruptive to the see Related
Documents.
4.4 Data retention periods
Currently for the QHIC solution there is no defined Data retention or archival strategy in
place. The experience with the PPV Test Execution shows the growth and volume of
data that will be within the solution post go-live. Careful conSideration needs to be
applied from the business as the required on-line retention period for data. This will
have a capacity impact (disk), but where the growth will be the largest (Workbrain), it
will have performance impact overtime (3 to 5 years).

This doesn't correlate with the time and attendance data from PPRT, as it showed only a 20% change in the time and
attendance data for the prior periods. Since PPV was conducted using the PPRT hence the following volumes were applied for
PPV. Decision from the acceptance of PPV3 Report that a standard retros value of 40% would be used for PPV4 Regression
Test Cycle.

For capacity planning, the main focus will be the tables effected by the time and pay calc, those being;
PA_CAlC: PPOPX, PPOIX, PCAlC and PCl2
PA_TlME: PCl2
The data exchange from Workbrain to SAP provides an aggregation of the attendance, absence and leave balance data. SAP
capacity requirements will be less in comparison with Workbraln, from the fact that the raw attendance, absence and leave
balance increment data is held within Workbrain as the source of true.

7.4 Solution Architectural Considerations
ThiS section is not intended as an exhausti ve list of architectural design practices. It is a collection of highlights that have
important performance impact on infrastructure capacit y and design. It is intended as a summary of those items that may
not impact the current project, but are important to a successful enterprise Implementation.
The general principle applies that each component of QHIC requires the same availability design considerations as the
application. This implies that for any shared component, the availability for each remote component will adopt the
availability design requirements of the application with the highest availability requirements.
QHIC comprises 4 major components:
SAP ECCS HR (HEP) ,
Workbrain (CWP),
SAP XI (CXP), and
SAP Solution Manager (CMP).
The Workbrain application is a J2EE application running in a Websphere environment and the issue of scalability and
availability need to be addressed. The database server for both SAP and Workbrain is Oracle database.
7.4.1 Factors that influence capacity:
The factor lists below are Included as additional reference material, and as guidance for implementation decision making.

Appendix E - Translating test results
from PPV to Production
There are several differences between the PPV environment and the Production
environment that may mean that results measured during PPV will be different in
Production.
1. Difference in sizing between the two environments.
The PPV environment is 90% of Production size. While the payrun
execution will most likely decrease and expected to be lower in the
Production environment - with the expected growth of the solution, the
results measured for the performance test are a sound basis for capacity
planning.
2. QHIC Solution was tested inclusive of key interactions.
Payroll Performance Verification test was conducted as close as possible to
full production. The key external interface with FAMMIS was included via
integration with COP.
3. Configuration or software differences between the two
environments.
Care has been taken to ensure that configuration changes in the PPV
environment will be applied in the Production environment, but there will
also be configuration differences that cannot be catered for, such as the
different database configuration (Single database vs active/passive DR)
and the configuration of CPS in Production. The specific changes made to
HER and CWPP during PPV were;
a. HER: Increasing the available Work Process to support 40 splits (45
available for batch processes)
b. HER: Increasing the memory allocation for ztta/roll_extension to
8GB and abap/heap_area_total to 8GB
c. HER: Changes T77S0 - LDB - PCEPS value to ;1000, to reduce
memory being held for logical DB when employees are being
accessed
d. CWPP: Increased timeout settings for Work Detail extract to;
- EnterpriseScheduler/TASK_ TIMEOUT to 5400000
- EnterpriseScheduler/MAX_STALE_LOCK_ TIME to 1800000
- EnterpriseScheduler/THREAD_SLEEP _ TIMS to 45000
4. Network differences between the two environments.
Since the PPV environment was placed within the Production Zone, the
environment security zones should be similar to that for the Production
environment and hence will have minimal performance impact.
Overall, we can be highly confident that QHIC Solution will successfully process
volumes in the Production environment. We can also state confidently that QHIC
Solution could be tuned to process higher levels of load in a larger environment.

10 Appendix F Timing consideration for
Production
Specific transactions were not executed in PPV, due for various reasons; nature
of the test with static data and system changes post test completion and were of
a nature that didn't require a further PPV cycle. Below is a list of specific
transactions and the estimated production execution times.
Transaction Estimated
Time
Comment
Payslip messages 20 mins PPV is a static test, volume of
payslip message will be business
depended. However the risk is
low as the transaction out of
Workbraln and into SAP is a pure
load function.
211 - Payroll Reconciliation
Export
20 mins Executed in PPRT on 10% volume
and 10% system capacity,
runtime was 5 mins. There is an
18 hour window for the export to
be extracted within.

20 mins Executed in PPRT on 10% volume
and 10% system capacity,
runtime was 5 mins. There is an
18 hour wi ndow for the export to
be extracted within.
Online backups N/A CorpTech will be introducing
online backups based upon
snapshots. This will further
reduce the risk and potential
impact of on-line transactions
executing during a backup.

1. Executive Summary
1.1. Objectives
The document describes the results, configuration, and test setup of the online performance
and volume testing - Round 5 conducted for the Old Health OHIC project.
This document is based on the previously issued "OHIC Performance Validation Report
Round 4 v1 .0.doc".
Criteria Success
Workbrain solution is scalable. X
Workbrain to support 600 concurrent users (OLD Health user volume) ./
Measure the maximum capacity of the Workbrain system for future
expansion.
../
Measure the response time for key transactions. ../
No specific target response times have been provided exceptfor the
Citrix presentation layer display. For this, 80% of the transaction
executions are expected to complete within 15 seconds or less for Citrix,
with none above 30 seconds maximum.
X
Workbrain system resource utilization at full OHEST load to be below
20%. Note that Workbrain's full target load is 3000 concurrent users.
OHEST will make up 20% of the total concurrent Workbrain user
population
../
1.2. Results
Round 5 testing has been completed for Workbrain on release 0.192, SAP HR was not in
scope because it was completed in Round 3.
1.2.1. SAP HR (HER)
SAP HR for OHIC was not in scope for this round of testing. It was tested under round 3
where it performed wel l and was certified for Production Go-Live.
OHIC Performance Interim Report - Round 5 3 CorpTech
Version: 1.0 22/01/2010
RTI Document No.1628
1.2.2. Workbrain
Workbrain hardware was sized to support 3,000 active users. It did not meet this
requirement.
Defect #2411: Curson Pin on S (known Oracle bug in 10.2.0.2)
Workbrain supports 150% of the predicted QHIC workload.
Workbrain will support the 600 users for QHIC.
The previously raised defect #2338 was still evident. This relates to the "RLF Publish
Roster" transaction. This transaction does not meet the 80
111
percentile response time
requirement even under modest load. However, because this manifests itself as slow
response times and does not cause a crash of the system per se, Queensland Health may
deem this level of performance to be acceptable depending on their business requirements.
Response times may be as high as 26 seconds for this transaction.
Defect #2338: Publish Roster in MVS.
Until this defect is resolved the Performance Assurance Group cannot certify Workbrain for
Production Go-Live.
Additional information: it should be noted that for QHIC's workload on the Workbrain
Solution, two application servers (two for redundancy) provide ample capacity
1.2.3. Workbrain Reliability
It should be noted that Workbrain seems fragile and needs more care and attention than
other systems we have tested. System performance and stability are affected from release
to release. Hopefully this will be improved over time as administrators become more familiar
with the product and the volume of development decreases. We recommend that Workbrain
releases be thoroughly tested .
1.2.4. IBM HTTP Server (IHS) vs Netscaler
Users can be load balanced to the Workbrain solution by IHS (IBM preferred software
solution) or by Netscaler (hardware network appliance) . The results in this document are
from using the IHS method.
Netscaler delivered significantly better performance for Workbrain transaction times,
particularly for transactions that required a lot of information to be transferred between the
server and the user. At the time of writing , Netscaler could not deliver the Cog nos reporting
part of the solution. Given the significant performance improvement using NetScaler, we
recommend further investigation into the use of NetScaler instead of IHS.
1.2.5. Citrix
No CITRIX tests were performed in this round of testing.
Please refer to:
"QHIC P&V - Part 1- Citrix Scalability Testing - Executive Report" dated 25-Feb-2009.

2. Risks
2.1. Development
This report only applies to Workbrain release 0.192.
Release 0.192 was designated the final version destined for release to production.
However, at the time of writing, we have had notification of a further release. The PAG
reiterates that given the observed variation in performance between releases, we strongly
recommend performance testing of the final production release of the QHIC Workbrain
solution.

Version : 1.0 22/0112010

3. Caveats
3.1. No comparison
Since the QHIC Solution is a completely new solution there is no comparison possible with
legacy systems
3.2. Data
Data provided was simplified to enable rapid development of test scripts.
3.3. Execution
Some transactions are not simulated perfectly according to how they are performed in
production due to the complexity of developing those scripts. For example , in production a
person would run a report for a certain ward and report accordingly. In our simulation each
report was executed against QLD Health as a whole. The effective throughput is the same .

5. Test Set-Up
LoadRunner was used to simulate users logging on to SAP and Workbrain from QLD
Health's Test network. A mixture of transactions which were identified by QLD Health to be
typical of daily activities was used for the tests.
The distribution of these transactions was as follows:
Application: SAP Workbrain
Logon 150 600
New appointments 1Create new employee 10 1hr n/a
Movements - higher duties 99 1hr n/a
Movement extension 31 1hr n/a
Date monitoring report 20 1 hr n/a
Terminations 7 1 hr 71 hr
Roster Plot - RLF open, edit, save, edit, submit n/a 301 hr
Roster Plot - Process Roster Load Form n/a 301 hr
Roster Plot - Publish RLF schedule to MVS n/a 301 hr
MVS Staff Roster - Create Shifts in MVS n/a 2501 hr
MVS Staff Roster - Book Staff to Shift in MVS n/a 2501 hr
MVS Staff Roster - View n/a 2001 hr
MVS On exception - Change Staff Roster + Publish Schedule n/a 5001 hr
MVS Off exception - Book off staff + Publish Schedule n/a 5001 hr
MVS Off exception - Staff Leave Request n/a 5001 hr
Edit time sheets n/a 5001 hr
Daily Staffing Report n/a 2001 hr
Clicker n/a 600 1 hr
These transactions and their throughput were provided by QLD Health during several
meetings with key personnel.
For SAP: Virtual user logins were selected from a pool of 900 unique SAP user accounts.
Each login was assigned a transaction according to the distribution table above.
For Workbrain: Virtual user logins were selected from a pool of 30,000 unique Workbrain
user accounts. Each login was assigned a t ransaction according to the distribution table
above.
A test was considered a success if it completed with less than 1 % of transactions failed, and
the 80th percentile transaction response times were no greater than 8 seconds (this does
not apply to the generation of lists/reports), and the transaction load target was met .
Anything else was considered a failure.

RTI Document No.1661
1. Introduction
This document describes the Extended Support required in addition to the existing CorpTech support
procedures that will govern the support provided by the CorpTech/lBM blended team (OHIC
Support Management Unit) for the period of three final payruns. Existing support procedures used
during extended support will be referenced in this document. This document does not aim to re-write
or override the current Corp Tech support procedures.
These extended support procedures are based on business as usual support procedures as defined
in the CorpTech Support Procedure Manual (attachment to the CorpTech Service Delivery Support
Model Transition document).
It is acknowledged that during extended support CorpTech staff in the OHIC Support Management
Unit will be performing business as usual activities. The contractual accountabilities and
responsibilities of each team involved in extended support is not described 'in this document, this
detail is contained in relevant sections of the SoW 8 and' schedule 26 of the contract.
These extended support procedures only cover the escalation path of defects and incidents related to
the OHIC HR/Payro11 solution. These procedures do not cover the support processes for legacy
systems or production support for systems outside of the OHIC solution.
1.1. Assumptions
The following assumptions have been identified relating to the OHIC extended support procedures:
The first pay run on the new solution will be Monday 22"" March, 2010.
Resolution of defects and deployment of defect fixes into the solution during extended
support will be conducted by the OHIC Support Management Unit only, the solution will be
handed over to the customer at the end of the extended support period
The implementation of changes into the Production environment will be kept to a minimum
during extended support.
OHIC will supplement CorpTech Project and Service Delivery team during Extended Support
and the OHIC Support Management Unit will provide the day to day management of
Extended Support activities.
CorpTech Project and Service Delivery resources will be made available to the OHIC Support
Management Unit for the Extended Support period.
The use of the Corp Tech Request for Change Process for Extended Support for defect
rectification will not delay defect resolution.
The Project Directorate and Project Board will continue as the governance structure for
extended support and and will be available as an escalation path for defects in dispute from
the Extended Support Management meetings.
Extended support resources will have access to all tools and systems required to perform
support during office hours and during on call hours
Any Public Holidays falling in the Extended Support Period are considered normal working
days i.e. Extended Support Resources will be required as normal.
All organisations providing support during the Extended Support Phase will provide resources
covering the extended hours in accordance with the Extended Support Plan Sections 2.3.3
Extended Support Hours of Operation and Appendix A - Extended Support Hours By Team.
Corp Tech is responsible for the CorpTech Service Desk.
OH 10 is responsible for connectivity and Access Services (including Citrix) as defined in the
Service Level Agreement between OH Information Division and OH SSP.
Commercial-in-Confidence 6 CorpTech
RTI Document No.1662
OHIC Support Management Unit defect/incident resolution will follow agreed prioritisation
(e.g. severity 1 is highest priority). Any changes required to defect/incident severity and
priority will be addressed via the extended support meetings.
Remote access facilities are available to all resources performing on-call support.
OHIC Extended Support will cover 3 Final Pay Runs in the new solution. The extended
support period will finish immediately after the completion of the 3"' pay run - Wednesday 21 st
April 2010.
2. QHIC Extended Support Approach
The OHIC Extended Support procedures will cover the first three pay runs following the Go-live of the
OHIC solution, specifically;
1st Pay Run - Monday 22nd March, 2010
2nd Pay Run - Monday 05th April, 2010
3rd Pay Run:... Monday 19th April, 2010
The extended support plan includes two tiers of support with two levels within each tier:
1. Internal to OH - SWOT and Go-Live Support Desk
2. External to OH - 1st and 2nd level Functional and Technical support (CorpTech Service Desk
and the OHIC Support Management Unit)

3.1.1. QH SSP Go-Live Support Desk
The OH SSP Go-Live Support Desk will handle all calls raised by OH SSP end users. Analysts within
the OH SSP Go-Live Support Desk team will assess the calls escalated from OH SSP 1" line support
teams. If the call is assessed to be an incident or defect that is unable to be resolved by the OH SSP
Go-Live Support Desk team (i.e. cannot be resolved via training, reference to work instructions etc)
then the call will be escalated to CorpTech Service Desk for logging in Sims and resolution (as per the
CorpTech Incident Management Process).

3.2. Request for Change Process
Defect management during extended support will be handled via the CorpTech Request for Change
Process for Extended Support.
The QHIC Support Management Unit will only be required to participate in the request for change
process for defect management (rectification). Service and Work Requests during the extended
support period will be addressed by CorpTech.
While system enhancements can be raised by QH SSP / QH (through the work request process) with
CorpTech during the extended support period they will not be addressed / resolved during the
extended support period.
3.2.1. Defect logging
During extended support defects will be logged via the CorpTech Incident Management process. The
full details of the defect are required to be provided at the time of incident logging.
CorpTech Service Desk will assign the defect (via SIMS) to the QHIC Support Management Unit
Defect Manager for analysis. If the SIMS record is identified as a defect, a Request for Change form
will be completed, by an authorised CorpTech team member in the QHIC Support Management Unit
In the case where insufficient details are provided the defect will be returned to CorpTech Service
Desk for further investigation/data gathering.
3.2.2. Defect analysis
The QHIC Defect Manager will analyse the defect and confirm the validity of the defect (and defect
severity) or whether the defect is a new requirement. On confirmation/acceptance of a defect the
QHIC Defect Manager will assign a severity rating to the defect and update SIMS. A Request for
Commercial-in-Confidence 16 CorpTech
RTI Document No.1672
Change (RFC) form will be completed by a CorpTech staff member in the QHIC SMU and a defect
record (RFC Number) in Quality Centre opened once the RFC is approved. The defect acceptance
and assigned severity will be communicated at the daily extended support status meetings.
For defects that have been agreed as new requirements, at the request of the customer, an impact
analysis will be prepared and a change request prepared for actioning the new requirement.
3.2.2. 1. Defect Severity Definition
The defect severity definition will follow the categories as described in Schedule 26.
The table below defines the severity levels.
Severity
Levet
Definition
1
URGENT
The Application, or an essential part of it, is unavailable and is critically
impacting the business. No workaround is available for the problem. For
example:
(i). Essential function not working at all, no practical workaround
(ii). Critical Program aborts or stops
(iii). Critical Application unworkable
(iv). Database corruption
(v). Essential component missing
2 The Application, or an essential part of it, is not working or working with
HIGH reduced functionality. However, the defect is not seriously impacting the
business because there is a practical workaround. For example:
(i). Essential function severely restricted
(ii). Essentialrunction not working, practical workaround available
3
MEDIUM
Defect in mainstream day to day function that does not render the function
unusable but prevents a related function from completinQ correctly.
4 Defect in a non-mainstream day to day function that does not render the
LOW function unusable but prevents a related function from completing correctly
or a Severity Level 3 Defect that has been rectified by a practical
workaround .

The defect resolution will be conducted in line with the service level agreement for extended support
as per Schedule 26.
Resoluti on of the defect for the purpose of meeting extended support SLA's for defect resolution is
defined as the point at which the defect is ready for release unless otherwise agreed.
3.2.6. Defect tracking for warranty purposes
Defect tracking for the purpose of warranty will be conducted in Quality Centre. Quality Centre
Production will be established to track defects raised from the commencement of extended support
(go-live) to the third pay run (six weeks duration).
Disputed items which are not addressed via the Extended Support Request for Change process will
be recorded in the impact assessment log. The impact assessment log will record all defects raised to
the QHIC SMU (ie agreed and disagreed defects).
Defect tracking for warranty purposes will be recorded in a defect warranty log. The details regarding
the use of this log are contained in the extended support induction pack. The defect warranty log will
be a shared document; however access to update will be restricted to QHIC SMU and CorpTech
Defect Manager/s and Coordinator/so
Standard QC reports will be available to provide updates on resolution of defects opened during
extended support. These reports will also be used for tracking of defects for the purpose of warranty.
No new reports will be developed for the tracking of defect resolution during extended support.

3.3. Release Management during extended support
3.3.1. Approved release management
Two types of releases will be available during the extended support period:
1. Timed Release: A timed release occurs in the Production Support landscape. This release
type is where Production Support changes are collated into a controlled migration into
Production at a designated time via the production support landscape. Timed releases are
handled by CorpTech Project Delivery personnel.
2. Emergency Release - An emergency release is carried out in the Production Support
landscape. Emergency releases are handled by the CorpTech Project,Delivery personnel and
consist of a correction to a known problem which has been determined by the Change
Management Process to be high severity, generally a severity 1 or 2.
The defect and solution management plan provides the approach for approved releases following go
live. Time releases outside of the defect and' solution management plan approach are not
recommended during extended support.
Timed releases will< be on Day 2 of each pay run (with part of day 3 available for cont ingency) and will
follow the CorpTech Release Management Strategy, Standards and Processes.
Emergency releases will be made to the production environment on agreement with CorpTech.
Emergency releases will follow where possible the CorpTech Request for Change for Extended
Support process any changes to this process for the implementation of emergency releases will be
agreed with CorpTech.
The QH HR CAB will provide approval for defect design/build to occur in the support development
environment. The defect design will be approved to move into testing by the QHIC Test Lead. Once
testing has completed the approval for the tested defect to move into pre-production will be provided
to the Release and Environment Management Team from the QH HR CAB email (approvers or
delegates). The QH HR CAB will only be involved in the release decision should issues arise with the
fortnight release schedule or the release of the defect.
Manual replicat ion of changes are required in the Release Landscape 48 hours after the
implementation of the change into the Production environment. This is to be perfomned by CorpTech
staff involved in the QHIC Support Management Unit.
The following release approach is additional to the defect management plan.

Legend - Risk Ranking Trend
Trend Description
t
The rank (severity) of the risk has increased.
..... The rank of the risk has not changed .
l
The rank (severity) of the risk has decreased.
COMMENTARY - CRITICAL & HIGH
Twenty new risks were raised in the last fortnight , one ranked Critical , five ranked High, with the
remainder ranked as Medium. Most of the nevv risks raised were initiated and owned by Queensland
Health. At the weekly joint Risk and Issue Meeting it was agreed that a number of the ri sks were not
valid - they have since been closed.
Critical Risk RS-00313 is about the reliance Line Managers will have on reports as they no longer
have access to the HR J Payroll system. At this stage it is unknown how reports will be produced and
disseminated to line Managers. A distribution process for SAP reports is being developed.
Risks Past Target Date
Awaiting response from Risk Owner re the two risks (RS-00290 and RS-00291) that have passed
their Target Date.
Risks Trending Upwards (worsening)
No risks have trended upwards.
