Getting access

Currently unavailable.

Getting started on Windows (for existing users)

For Windows users it is recommended to use a mapped network drive. This will be mounted automatically when users are logging on. The procedure is as follows:

  1. Open File Explorer and press Map Network Drive.

  1. In the dialogue box: Type the given storage space path (\\hypatia\astra\astra-01\) ending with your username. Remember to check "Reconnect at sign-in" and press Finish. Now, File Explorer will display the new storage under "Network locations". A pop up of the station in file explorer should now appear, with your username.

Getting started on Linux

Linux users will find the storage space already available on the server login.uio.no in the directory:

/net/hypatia/uio/fs01/astra/astra-01/

Getting started on Mac OS X

Mac-users may follow this procedure to get the storage mounted:

  • Open Finder and press CMD + K to get the Server-dialog. Type:
smb://hypatia/astra/astra-01/username
  • Click OK.

Getting started outside the wired UiO network

If you're connected via a wireless network or a VPN to UiO, you may use Cyberduck (Mac) or WebDrive (Windows):

In both cases, connect via login.uio.no and use the path

/net/hypatia/uio/fs01/astra/astra-01/username

Backup

The storage space will be backed up daily, and backups are kept for 90 days.
