VAX No More
SSU/IT retired the last of its legacy servers, the VAX, last week without much fanfare. Abandonment of use of the VAX started to occur when many administrative databases and applications were moved over to the Common Management System in the 1990s. Some legacy applications were not included in the scope of the CMS project and so use of the VAX continued for several years more. One by one though, IT migrated those applications to modern systems.
