Yes Tracsvn is one VM and Secure is another.

FYI, Secure the new home for LDAP has been up since round 1, but there's
been little discussion lately about when to move it.

I'm going to put in the request for Tracsvn, and check if our backend
access to the hosts is ready for us to do it ourselves/adjust diskspace
& ram after creation.
