Naming Conventions Site Names As far as sites are concerned, admins and business leaders need to come to their own terms. Traditionally, we have stuck with three characters representing a local name, the business unit, and the larger geography they exist in. For example: BMO - Butler Manufacturing Ohio MRO – Marysville Research Ohio Servers Names Roles • • •

SuperHubs - manage the replication and mail transfer between regions. Hubs - can replicate application and route mail. Spokes - are typically more specialized and are broken down into Application, Mail, Dev, QA, and other..

Naming Regional admins work with sites admins to work out the names, but should be named after their functions. The only part which there is a hard rule are for the first two parts of the name. • • •

The first character describes the server as an H (hub) server or an S (spoke) server.. Superhubs are designated by Z. Next is the site name (like JMO, MMO, PMO). Lastly, the site specific unique identifier.

Here are a few examples: HRSM0001/SRV/NA/MyCompany SRSMM001/SRV/NA/MyCompany SRSMA001/SRV/NA/MyCompany HAMA001/SRV/NA/MyCompany STMTBS01/SRV/NA/MyCompany HAMA003/SRV/EU/MyCompany XMMO003/SRV/NA/MyCompany SMMOM023/SRV/NA/MyCompany
