Note 5: For NMR's or X-Ray's share, you need to also add your own group's folder name to the path, which is usually the PI's last name.

Note 6: If your group has varying permissions on the group's file share (arranged through Chemistry IT), file moves can be tricky. You must keep in mind the need for "tricks" during file moves, which is one main reason we advise most groups to avoid varying permissions if they can. And when groups have varying permissions, they usually limit it to their "archive" of prior member's files. In that case, only group file share Admins need to know any of these tricks. (smile) To move files into areas where you'll want them to inherit  the new permissions (such as into an archive folder), follow these steps:

  • Copy, paste, delete. (Not simply move.)

Chemistry IT is available to help you learn these subtleties, so please let us know if we can help. And fortunately, in the case of a share's archive, normal members can't move items out of the archive. Thus, no problem in that direction since members will have to copy, or simply read-in-place, the files which interest them.
