The wvu-ad N:\ Drive is a departmental drive designed to be shared between multiple users in a department. Users can only see the folders they have access to under the N:\ Drive. The N:\ drive is separated into 2 folders, "Common" and "Secure." The "N:\ deptName\common" folder is shared by an entire department, while the "N:\ deptName\secure" is for folders with more specific rights. Please note that granular rights are not assigned to subfolders of the "Common" folder. Folders that are not intended to be accessible by the entire department and require restricted rights must be moved under the "Secure" folder for that department.
How to request access to certain folder on the network drive:
All access requests must come from a supervisor and approved by either the Dean/Director or a confirmed Approver. If a user requires access to another department's folder, that department's dean/director must approve the request.
Common Access Requests:
Submit a ticket that includes the folder name and path (location of the folder) in the request.
Secure Access Requests:
Submit a ticket and specify the folder needed (ie N:\ deptname\secure\ShrFldr). If you are a supervisor, specify the rights the user requires (Read-Only or Read/Write). If rights are not specified, the user will receive read/write access. No rights will be given at the Secure level, a sub-folder of secure must be specified.
