Preparing for our new server this summer

Getting ready for the Server reimage

Everyone should do the following:

1.      Back up your data from your network login, the H: drive, to a 2 gigabyte or greater flash drive or a DVD.  If you have a question about how to do this, see me.  For example, my login is under H:\edeadmon.

2.      Locate all the software you want reinstalled on your PC (e.g. personal printers etc) and put it in an interoffice envelope with your name, room number and titles.   Give this to me by June 9 so I can have it ready for the installers.

3.      Any desktop computers you have in your room need to have a paper attached to the screen indicating any printer you want reinstalled or any software you want reinstalled (e.g. Lanschool with the channel number).  Printer names can be found by opening MS Word, going to File\print and in the pull down window at the top where it says Printer Name, make note of any printers you see in this pull down.  You only have to do this on one computer to find the names.

4.      If you have a laptop, make sure you backup your data and return it to me by June 10^th.

5.      All laptops and their power cords, including administrators’ laptops, need to be turned in to me so I can tag them and inventory them.

Thanks for your help.  If we can do all this, I think the fall will start with less problems.  Ed
