Kintana Environment Naming Standards

 

 
Environment Naming Conventions

The environment names and descriptions you associate with physical servers can be whatever you choose. However using a consistent naming convention is strongly recommended.

The recommended formats are


blue_bullet Environment name : 'ENVIRONMENT SERVERNAME'.

blue_bullet Description : 'ENVIRONMENT FUNCTION DETAILS'.

where 'ENVIRONMENT' is, for example, 'DEV', 'QA', 'PROD', 'DRS'

and 'FUNCTION' is, for example, 'Application', 'Database'

Pre-fixing the Name and Description fields with the ENVIRONMENT makes it very much simpler to review the environment list and keep it in sync with the real physical world!
