Mainstream Storage is easy to use for staff because it works and performs like a regular hard drive.
This full-featured solution provides Windows-compatible file space. Available in gigabyte increments, Mainstream Storage enables local system administrators to manage storage provisioning and access for their department.
Infrastructure is housed in a high-availability enterprise university data center.
Storage is monitored by ITS and available 24/7. For information about maintenance and planned outages, see the Service Level Agreement.
"Snapshot" capability allows the restoration of deleted data without the need for requesting restores from ITS.
The service is available in increments of 10 gigabytes. To use this service you must have:
A 6-digit ShortCode for the account to which the service will be charged
Your department's Active Directory "prefix," which distinguishes their resource names from those of other departments
The name of an Active Directory group that will have administrative access to your storage
a MCommunity Directory group to which we can send notifications
To connect off campus: VPN or SFTP client
