Dear Colleagues
I am pleased to be able to announce that YNiC is open for scanning. This
is possible because of the remarkable efforts of the staff in YNiC over
the last 9 weeks and I would like to publicly acknowledge their selfless
and tireless efforts.
The booking database is available again and scanning is possible in both
MRI and MEG.
We have checked that data acquired on the scanners can be saved to the
main disc arrays within the IT server room and that this data is also
archived to tape.
Users can now gain access to their home disc spaces and project spaces.
We would be grateful if Users could check their files. We do know that a
few filenames in a very small number of projects have been changed
during the recovery process. The only files that will have been affected
are those that originally had a colon character (:) in the filename.
This will now be an underscore (_). If you need help or see a change
that affects you please send an email to it.manager(a)ynic.york.ac.uk
Remote access is now available.
Please note that for those who have access to the Remote Desktop
service, you need to make sure that you are running version 3.5 of the
client (most people will already be doing this) and that a new key is
necessary. Instructions on changing the connection key can be found at:
https://www.ynic.york.ac.uk/doc/ITPages/RemoteDesktop/InstallingNX
To check whether or not you have at least 3.5 installed, please start
the NX Client and go to the "About" tab where the version number will be
displayed.
BUT...
We are still waiting for equipment to be delivered to allow a complete
resumption of all the services. The key components that are NOT yet
available relate to the computing cluster.
FSL and Matlab are available and work from the desktop in the open plan
area.
MEG analysis that uses the computing cluster is not yet available. I
will let you know when the compute cluster has been reactivated
