Move UTM base maps to local machine.

UDAF

Currently working with tripp to see if we can access hnas with local accounts. Also looking into smaller block size for storage to reduce the amount of empty space in the image blocks. If the local account stuff does not work, we can create the storage on grms01. Otherwise it can be created in hnas. New storage will need to be requested with the smaller block size. The compact format was 500gb I believe.

I looked over UDAF and it has the basemaps in the basemap selector so we can remove those and repoint to local services build the javascript and republish the application. The print maps have the basemap services embedded so we will have to remove and repoint those to the same subset. Those mxd's reside on mapserv and will need to be updated there.

Hybrid, Topo, and Vector are the subset we have decided on. I think Vector could be chopped if we add the landownership as a reference layer to udaf.

The land ownership layer is in the features mxd for udaf for the spatial calculations. With some coding we could make it a reference layer (toggle its visibility). It does reside in the sgid93 database and so hopefully that is being maintained on some sort of minimal schedule?

UDSH

Preservation pro has the Hybrid and Topo basemaps as keys in their web.config. I think we could update those and carry on. Historic buildings has a config.xml file with the Hybrid that I think we could update and carry on.

I was able to remove the basemaps from the layer selector for udaf, ✨ run the dojo 1.5 build ✨ , and publish to staging successfully!!! Stage is now without the other 3 basemaps. Once we publish new basemaps this shouldn't be too bad.

tripps hack didn't quite work. I think we need to ask for the cheapest storage we can get. Ideally (4K block size) expandable to 600 GB attached to grms01

His last trick was to use an NFS share but the OS is too old and the tools microsoft had are now deprecated and hard to find installers for. The one I did find with the wayback machine wouldn't install on a 64 bit machine. I think we might be to the end of the road with hnas

udaf is now using local utm basemaps
