S: Drive Temporarily Unavailable

Friday - February 24th., 2006
Message from Joe Lear;

In an effort to improve access to the S: drive (you may see it as share on uoeshare (S:)), we’re moving the server that houses the S drive to a new location on campus Friday, February 24th at 4 pm. The server will be down for 1 hour for the move.

The move requires us to change the server's IP address. This means that a Directory Name Services (DNS) change will also have to take effect. The DNS change can take anywhere from a few minutes to days depending on DNS server you are attached to. (Sorry, we have no control over this.)

Access will be available as soon as the DNS change propagates out. This means most people will have access Friday night, but some people will have to wait. At worst case it should be available no later than Monday the 27th at 8 am. This will also affect web access to the S drive via http://uoeshare.ext.missouri.edu/share.

If you have questions about the move or will need access during the weekend, please let me know.

If you can not access the S drive on Monday Morning, please contact ETCS and we will help you resolve the issue.
