Category 'Institution Data' has limited functionality for shared drives
For shared drives in the "Institute Data" category, NFS shares are currently only partially functional. We are working on a solution.
Storage space for the data storage of jointly edited data. These drives correspond in their properties to the central home directories with the following extensions:
- joint editing of stored data is possible
- quotas up to 100 TB are possible
- data protection class "very high" is possible with suitable additions
- the access rights can be managed by the workgroups themselves
- connection to own Windows subdomains is possible
Workgroups of the TU Dresden can request the provision of group drives for projects or shared file storage via the self-service portal. They are provided as network drives for Windows, Apple Mac and Linux via Samba/CIFS or NFS. Access to the drives is only possible in the campus network.
