Due to recent performance problems with the Faculty/Staff GroupWise Post Office, a new Post Office has been created and about 100 accounts were moved it last week.  We will be watching both PO’s closely for problems.  We are looking for this to help performance for all Faculty/Staff users.  If you have difficulties with your account please contact ITS.

There has been continuing work performed on the Faculty/Staff File Server Migration over the weekend.  Several users’ home directories (P: drives) have been moved from the old server, Mahler, to the new server, Mozart.  If you experience problems connected to your home directory, please reboot and login to get the new drive mapping.  Following this, if you still have problems, please contact ITS.

This morning a small change was made to GroupWise WebAccess.  When you go the http://gww.anderson.edu, instead of being redirected to https://gww.anderson.edu/gw/webacc, you will be redirected to https://gwwc.anderson.edu/gw/webacc.  You will still be accessing the same server but the name has just changed a bit, notice it is ‘gwwC’ now.  This has been done as a preliminary step to providing a second, redundant WebAccess server in the near future.  If you currently have a shortcut or bookmark saved with the full path to ‘gww’ it will continue to work for a while, but once the new server is added to the mix it may no longer work.  The best option is to create or modify your bookmark to point to http://gww.anderson.edu.  This will allow for the correct redirect to happen.

Watch for more updates to the situation as we continue to strive to provide more reliable service.
