Overview

• ITS moved all Department and Center files and folders from the O: Drive (on a server called CASBox) to a new CAS share in the V: Drive (on a server called Lincoln).
  
  

  • Windows users: Your new CAS share will be mapped automatically for University Windows computers on campus.  It will be your V: Drive instead of your O: or P: Drive. You will need to manually map the V: Drive from off-campus. See File Storage - Mapping Network Drives for details.

  • Mac and Linux users: You will need to manually map/mount the V: Drive (Lincoln) to access your folders.  See File Storage - Mapping Network Drives for details.

• The only changes were to the share and folder names at the top level of your folders. The contents of all files, other folders, and permissions did not change.

• Top-level folder names are prefixed with an identifier using a department abbreviation (e.g. AFS- for Africana Studies) or center name (e.g. Mumford-).

• Teaching and Research drives were not being changed as part of this migration; only Department and Center drives.
