Frequently asked questions about the migration to the new server named Artemis:

• On my department's Migration Day, I am scheduled for the new Novell set-up at 2 p.m. Can I use my computer during the morning?
  • Yes, just click on Workstation Only at the log in screen.
    • There are two separate logins at your computer:  the Workstation login and the Novell login.  
    • You can "sync" these passwords to allow you to log into both at the same time.
• How often will I have to change my password?
  • Passwords must be changed every 6 months.  You can not re-use any password from the previous 24 months.
• I forgot my password.  Who can help me?
  • Call the Help Desk.  We will ask MINS to reset your password and then we will assist you in selecting a new password.
• How long will shared files be unavailable?
  • The department's files will be "locked" at 4 p.m. on the day before Migration Day.   
  • Our team will visit your department the following morning to install the new software and to assist you in changing your password.  We rely on the Department Coordinator to set priorities among users. 
• Does this migration period affect my access to other services?
  • The following services are on other servers, not Artemis or Athena.  They will not be affected by this migration:
    • eBear (including your department budget)
    • email
    • Oracle calendar (formerly Corporate Time)
  • Access to the Internet is not affected.
  • Network printing does not require access to Artemis
• When will MY department move to Artemis?
  • With a few exceptions, we are moving the faculty first.
  • Scheduling is our largest problem.  We need at least two weeks lead time to review the current accounts and put your department into the pipeline.  
  • If you want to move your department soon, please call the Help Desk.
