Windows desktop PCs Sun Ray thin clients Windows Terminal Servers UNIX (Solaris) compute servers Linux compute servers Linux desktop PCs (MPhys, PGs and Staff) Apple Macs (PGs and Staff) Types of computers available.

Active Directory is the Microsoft user authentication system. Roaming profiles - personal settings will follow you around My Documents redirected to your networked filestore; h:\dos\ Staying with Windows XP for now! Windows Desktop PC (Active Directory)

Sun Rays (Thin Clients) In Library, cyber cafes, Physics workroom and in many corridors around the campus. No computing power – simple clients to connect to servers. Allow access to web browser, Windows terminal servers, Linux desktop + UNIX terminal

Windows Terminal Servers – provide additional software and access. Linux servers – provide a linux desktop option on Sun Rays + compute power. UNIX (solaris) servers – our general purpose compute servers. The Servers

Storing your personal files Use your h: drive – 1GB default quota This holds My Documents on windows, and UNIX/Linux home directory. Back up + snapshots Check quota in Your Account on BUCS web.

Storing your work/research files Use your x: drive – and ignore the Windows size report. Each research group should have an area. Permissions are group specific. Backed up every night.

Useful to know Printing – each group is slightly different, so ask your supervisor. is one of our primary means of communication, so check regularly. quota is separate to your filestore. is virus scanned, and spam checked. Laptop docking is available in many offices/labs.

Introduction to Physics IT Support

The Library has many PCs and Sun Rays available at all times. PC labs are situated in 1W2.25, 1E3.9, 2E1.14 and 3E3.1, and may be used if not booked for teaching. Where to find a computer? Sun Ray terminals may be found all around the campus. Physics computer workroom – 3 West 4.3

3 West 4.3 (up the stairs from Physics Square) Open 08:30 – 17:00 during the week (my work hours) 20 Sun Rays 3 Windows XP PCs Wireless network IT Support in the corner... The Physics Computer Workroom

19 Windows PCs in level 3 labs, 20 PCs in MPhys lab (mix of XP and Linux) Dedicated hardware and software for experiments. Printer for lab results. Wireless and docking. Physics Teaching Laboratories

Physics Research Facilities

IT related purchasing University financial regulations restrict the suppliers that we can use, and the types of computers that we can buy. Within the Department of Physics, ALL IT purchases should be discussed with me, and in most cases I will deal with all of the order process. Please note that some research projects cannot fund Computer Consumables!

Display Screen Regulations You may have been given a workstation assessment/display screen assessment form to complete (a pink form). Im the Departments named Assessor, so Im responsible for checking these are done, and that any required changes are made.
