Tiger Retiring

5 06 2011

The following was posted to Bboard on July 3rd. Thanks to Stacey Muir for bringing this to our attention.

Academic Web Server (Tiger) Being Retired
PLEASE NOTIFY FACULTY IN YOUR DEPARTMENT:

The Web server which is known as both “Tiger” and academic.scranton.edu will be officially retired on July 28, 2011, due to its operating system’s end-of-life. Nearly all of the official web pages/sites of our academic departments and programs that previously were housed on the academic server (Tiger) have been migrated to the Web Content Management System (CMS). A transitional Web server is being set up for departments, clubs, and individuals that have not yet migrated their Web sites to the CMS.

• The web directories of departments, organizations and clubs that fall into this category (i.e. not in the CMS) will be moved to the transitional server.
• Individuals (Faculty/Staff) who wish their web directories moved to the transitional server must send an email request to Connie Wisdo (wisdoc1@scranton.edu) by July 1, 2011. In your email request, please specify the URL of the home/index page of the site(s) you need moved.
• If your department has some pages in the CMS, and others remaining on the academic server, please send an email to Connie Wisdo (wisdoc1@scranton.edu) by July 1, 2011 specifying the URLs of the pages you need moved, or better yet, move them to the CMS!
