<p class="MsoNormal">This Saturday (2/23) from roughly 8:00 AM until Noon the Windows file server PHYPCS will be offline. This is part of a planned upgrade to increase the capacity and performance of the system.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">During this time user profiles, group shares, and print queues will be offline.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">To further elaborate, user profiles (for most of our Windows users) consist of the contents of your “U:\” drive and additionally the “Desktop” and “My Documents” folders. Group shares are folders that are located on the file server and
shared my more than one person. Group shares are typically mapped to a drive letter (“x:\” drive) or accessed by typing in something like
<a href="file:///\\phypcs\sharename">\\phypcs\sharename</a>. Print queues are special network shares that we use to print to networked printers.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you are unsure of how you’d be affected by this outage or if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me by email or phone.<o:p></o:p></p>
