Beginning at 5 pm on Friday, April 29, MERIT Infrastructure staff will temporarily disconnect all active connections to the MAPLE file server to enable access to our new network storage device. Login access should be restored within 30 minutes.

The School of Education network file storage is at full capacity.  To meet the demands for additional storage space, MERIT and WCER Infrastructure staff have installed a second network storage device and will be migrating data to expand our storage capacity.

On Friday evening, MERIT staff will complete the migration of SoE Department share folders (the S: Drive) to the new storage device. If you login before the migration has completed,  you may not yet see all of your files. Rest assured that the migration is still underway. MERIT staff will send out a status update when the migration has completed.

There will be no connection changes due to this migration. Your existing connections, mappings or paths to your files on the MAPLE file server will continue to work.

Please note that additional maintenance windows will be announced to complete other data migrations to our new storage unit. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience. Contact Brenda Spychalla if you have questions or concerns about this maintenance.
