Practical information concerning various computer-related aspects of The Big Moving(TM) in January 2017.

General Information

Moving Computers - Instructions

  • When packing your computers in Canon building, pack all the cables, except the network cable - it is usually "fixed" and must be left there. You will get a new connection cable from the IT support team.
  • Connecting computers to the network in the new location is managed by the ITS support team. Members of this team will help you to connect your computers once you move, but please take into account that many people will need help so the support guys may not be available immediately. To speed up the process, please communicate at least with other colleagues that you will share the room with, make your plan, and call the support team to coordinate the time when they will come and connect as many computers as possible.
  • When your things are moved, unpack your computer, arrange it on or under your new desk and connect all peripherals (monitor, keyboard, mouse).

Example: You know that your things will be moved on Wednesday morning. You talk to your future roommates and you all agree that you will be ready to get connected at 2 p.m. Call the support team and arrange that they will come at 2 p.m. and connect all computers in the room.

  • Your computers will be connected to the same network as in Canon building, so your IP address will stay unchanged. Also, all connection methods, access restrictions, and setups will be the same as they are now.

Wifi Network

  • The Canon wifi network will not be "moved" to the new location. However, you can connect your devices to the IOCB campus wifi - see these instructions. If you are an IOCB employee, do not use eduRoam within the IOCB campus, as access to most IOCB resources is limited from eduRoam; use IOCB wifi network instead.
  • All rooms should be covered by the wifi signal (offices of theoretical groups have some extra access points installed), however the signal may be week in some places. Also, do not expect extra strong signal in the corridors.

Services

  • As the Clara server is extremely old, it is very likely that it will not be revived in the new location. There are several important consequences that must be observed:
    • The common disk space accessed by samba protocol (\\clara\common and \\clara\public) will be closed. For sharing files, all group members can use the common shared directory created on the institute SAMBA server:
\\samba.uochb.cas.cz\Hobza

and

\\samba.uochb.cas.cz\Jungwirth

These shared directories are accessible for all member of the respective groups - use your albina login ID and password to connect. You can start using these directories immediately - they both are already working.

    • There will be two common printers for both groups - HP LaserJet 4005 and Minolta bizhub C220. Both printers will be placed at the beginning of south-west wing in the niche. As there will be no clara server, most people will need to reconfigure their printing to print directly to the printers, not to clara server. Most Windows users already print directly to Minolta, so they will only need to reconfigure HP 4005. Configuration details will be published here.
    • The remaining printers are old and do not have network connection. They will most likely be used in some offices, but details are to be solved during January.
    • Scanning on Minolta will still be possible, but the system will need to be reconfigured to store the scans on different location. Details will be published here.
  • E-mail setup, reading and sending mails will not change.

Coffee

Plans for new coffee maker(s) are still being tuned. It seems, that we will be able to buy two new machines (one for each group) from the income generated by the coffee business. However, details of operation are still not clear so they will be announced later. Meanwhile, please pay maximum of your debts before Christmas so that we can close one period and start another one. To check your credit balance on-line, please see the report.
