HZW Documentation
The documentation of all things HZW has the following philosophy:
- General information, processes, methods and how-to's get documented in this Wiki
- Physical and Logical Resources like Servers, IPs, Networks, Services, VLANs etc. get documented in Netbox
- Projects and changes get tracked using Kanboard

Organizational Documentation
Chat
Our primary tool for communication and coordination is matrix.
To join our matrix server matrix.kabelsalat.it you need a matrix client like riot.
On this Matrix server, there is the "hzw admins" channel.
Plase report there and ask if it's ok If you make changes that have an impact.
Example:
"Hey guys, did $Something at the Database server. Can I reboot it to test it's reboot persistency?"
Answer: "No! $Important-thingy does $important-thing and cannot be disrupted right now! Wait one more hour please!"
Video Conferences
For means of faster communication and collaborative working we use our video conferencing solutions, if needed.
There are no regular hzw meetings. We get together when the need arises.
Coordinate projects
Please open a Ticket in our Kanban Board "Team HZW"
If you want to report a bug, request a change or think I would be cool to have $thing but don't want to spend time implementing it or don't know how to
