Requesting Access to a Network Drive

You will automatically get rights to your department’s drives once your contract is entered into GullNet. Faculty and staff who work in two or more departments will only get access to their primary department’s network drives. To get access to another department(s) O drive, that department supervisor or department chair would need to request access for you. They would do the following:

• Log into our online ticketing system at http://itsupport.salisbury.edu
• Choose Logins, Accounts, and Access and then choose I need access
• Fill out the ticket, making sure to include the following:
  • The name and username of the person who needs drive access.
  • The name or path of the drive that is being requested (e.g., Chemistry’s O: drive).
  • Click Submit

Once access is granted, your drive will be accessible, but will have a different drive letter than normal (as there cannot be two drives with the same letter).

Managing Files and Drive Space

Faculty and Staff

Faculty and staff should use their network drives (P, O, U, etc.) or OneDrive to store Salisbury University files and documents, as these files are backed up and encrypted.

• Faculty and staff should not save files to their local C drive.
• Faculty and staff should not save University or work related files to removable disk drives, as those drives are not secure and are not backed up or encrypted.Faculty and staff should also avoid using cloud storage options such as Box, DropBox or Google Drive, as these services are also unsecure and unencrypted.
  SU is currently working to provide a cloud-based storage option to faculty and staff in the near future.

Requesting More Space

1. Before requesting more drive space, it's a good practice to delete files that are no longer needed or being used.
2. Faculty and staff can request more space by submitting a ticket to the IT Help Desk. Please include in the ticket an estimate of the amount of space you'll need and the reason for requesting more space.
