Detailed description and plan
| Introduction On Saturday October 5th, 2013, NASDAQ OMX Nordic will perform verification tests of the site failover functionality in the Genium INET production environment. The system will be available for participants for login and standard reference data and business queries. No other type of business functionality will be enabled. Participants are recommended to take advantage of this opportunity to test their connectivity and ability to failover to the NASDAQ OMX Site B. Please note that only participants that have connectivity to site B can participate in this test. The failover verification test will be available for the participants in the following markets in the NASDAQ OMX Nordic Genium INET system: · NASDAQ OMX Stockholm AB derivatives markets (including derivatives on Swedish, Danish, Finnish and Norwegian shares and indices) · NASDAQ OMX Stockholm AB Fixed Income markets · NASDAQ OMX Copenhagen A/S Fixed Income markets · NASDAQ OMX Helsinki Ltd.

Connectivity will also be as normal, allowing OMnet and ITCH connectivity via both Site A and Site B, and FIX via Site A. The markets will be in closed state, with login allowed and business queries enabled. Markets will remain closed throughout the test. At 10:30 CEST a controlled failover from Site A to Site B will be performed, simulating a complete loss of Site A. Connectivity to Site A will hence be disabled. The failover activities are estimated to be completed at 11:30 CEST, at which time logon will be available on Site B only. The exact time will be communicated via IT Information message during the test. Please note that you are required to have connectivity to Site B for this step. At 12:30 CEST the Genium INET system will be shut down and configuration restored to normal weekend operation.
