Before purchasing a server for your department, refer to the University's
Security Policy for details on server management.
NOTE: ITS can assist with initial
setup and configuration of servers, but each server must have an assigned
administrator to oversee day to day functions. ITS cannot provide this
service, due to limited staff. Please contact Micheal Ong at ongm @ usfca.edu
if you have any questions regarding server management issues. |
