We have been able to install the service without destabilizing the system. IMS1 will probably officially become the new AppleTalk file server some time within the next week. The changeover will hopefully be transparent to users but if not, an announcement will be made in BVU News. We found the problem but all virtual webs need to be altered. This will be done in the future and will not require any downtime.
Indexing allows web users to search for keywords within a web site.
After-hours downtime was required to install services for Macintosh which will allow IMS1 to serve as the new AppleTalk file server to replace the existing AppleTalk file server which has not been the most reliable. However, installing services for Macintosh destabilized IMS1. For now, we have removed the service in order to keep IMS1 stable. The problem was solved with no downtime. ODBC drivers are included with MS DAC but no problems should arise from the upgrade.
