Subject:Obtaining RCS Disk Space for a Department or Club

Supported by:Academic Computing Services and the Rensselaer Union


Description:

Free disk space is available on RCS for departmental and club uses.


Getting Started:

For departments: Each department is granted 50 MB of disk space on RCS at no charge. Each department needs to have a disk administrator. This person is in charge of granting people system permissions to use the disk space.

To obtain disk space, please fill out the ``RCS Departmental Disk Space Request" form available at the VCC Help Desk with the appropriate authorization. But, please first check the /dept directory in RCS to see if your department already has disk space.

For Clubs: Clubs sponsored by the Rensselaer Union are granted 10 MB of disk space for free. Please contact the Union via electronic mail at union@rpi.edu.

Documentation:

none


Tips and Hints:

If you are obtaining disk space to store items for use in RPInfo, you will need to change the permissions in the /dept space to system:anyuser.
