Storage
Departmental Storage:
Each University Academic Unit, or equivalent, will be allocated up to 10GB of storage per staff member in a departmental share according to their IPEDS number. Full control of the departmental share will be given to the OU Administrators (OUAs) as designated by the head of the Academic Unit. OUAs will then have the ability to organize and delegate rights to the contents of the share.
University Academic Units will have the opportunity of dividing their initial allocation of departmental space between UMNAD and Netfiles.
For more information on increasing storage capacity, contact umnad@umn.edu or netfiles@umn.edu.
