Dear Users, The scratch2 drive is getting full, so we need to delete older files from it. We start deleting files older than the 01st August 2024 today. NB This will include data files (eg exel data etc). Please make sure you have everything backed up, as mentioned during the training session, make multiple backups of images on the day of the imaging session. Please remember that the Scratch2 drive is for transferring FILM data only. It is not for long term storage or for users to store other data and programs. If you are working offsite then Scratch2 can be accessed either through VPN or using the remote gateway to logon to you work PC. Many thanks All the best, David ---------------------------------------------------- David Gaboriau, PhD (Cantab), FRMS Microscopy Specialist Sir Alexander Fleming Building South Kensington Campus Imperial College London Exhibition Road London, SW7 2AZ SAF 4th floor, open space desk 408 +44 (0)20 7594 9793 d.gaboriau(a)imperial.ac.uk https://www.imperial.ac.uk/people/d.gaboriau http://www.imperial.ac.uk/medicine/facility-for-imaging-by-light-microscopy/ https://www.imperial.ac.uk/Stories/light-fantastic/ ----------------------------------------------------

Dear Colleagues, I hope this message finds you well. I would like to inform you of a current substantial shortage in our staffing. As of today, I am the only staff member fully available across three sites (ICTEM, SAF, Flowers). We anticipate that within the near future, staffing levels will increase to 2-3 members. Please note that David will be unavailable for work until September 19, 2024. I apologize for any delays and inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding during this period. As FILM manager, I am committed to allocating appropriate staff resources to maintain the best possible performance of our imaging services. For any queries related to the SAB Building, please contact Maddy or direct your questions to our dedicated email: film-service(a)imperial.ac.uk. Thank you for your cooperation. Best regards, Volodymyr
