| | Most administrative matters to do with purchasing & travel are dealt with by ASBC (Arts and Sciences Business Center) in Cordley Hall. An ever-changing set of people manage different aspects of the [[https://fa.oregonstate.edu/asbc/unit/physics|physics account]]. Most administrative matters to do with anything not related to purchasing are dealt with by Kelly Carter in the Physics main office. Kelly is the one with the department credit card; credit card purchases are done through her. |

| ===== Computer account and file sharing===== | ===== Computer account and file sharing===== |
| To get an account with [[http://my.science.oregonstate.edu/|COSINE]] (College of Science Information Network) fill out this [[http://my.science.oregonstate.edu/system/files/accountrequest.pdf|Account Application]] and return it to 1022 Cordley. This is Ethan's .... We should set up a t-drive for sharing data ... Remember to specify that you need access to the T: drive (Physics/Minot Group). | [[http://my.science.oregonstate.edu/|COSINE]] (College of Science Information Network) holds our lab data on its T-drive. To access, you can use your ONID credentials. Janet instructs CoSINe that you have permission to access the T: drive folder Physics/Tate Lab/Share, so remind her to send the instruction. Create a folder with your name and store data there. Please use sensible file names and an organized structure. You have access to all other folders, but DO NOT change anything those unless you have agreed with the owner. |
| |
| For sharing files with group members, log into your COSINE account, open 'my computer/T:/Physics/Minot Group'. We can store ~ 10 Gb here. | Please store all your data on the T-drive, and update it AT LEAST WEEKLY. The master data live on the T-drive. No ifs, buts or maybes. |
| |
| For files which you don't need to share with other people, you have 2 or 3 Gb on the Z: drive. | New in 2019 is that we now have a "Box" folder for the lab. Box is OSU's implementation of Dropbox, and OSU pushes us to use it. You need only OSU credentials to login but I have to set permissions for you to use a particular folder. Downside is that there are space constraints, so we will continue to use the T-drive. |
| |
| | With covid-19, we are now accessing computers remotely, so go to the [[computers:start|Computers]] page for this information and also for the instructions for computer maintenance. |
