====== BEA_RES (L Drive) ======

The lab has PII-allowed UPMC-firewalled file storage through the Office of Academic Computing (OAC). Colloquially, this is the "L drive" as it is mounted to ''L:\'' on Windows PCs. 

The directly of the slashes in the address for the file share depends on the operating system. For windows
<code>
\\acct.upmchs.net\oac\bea_res
</code>

For MacOS and Linux
<code>
//acct.upmchs.net/OAC/BEA_RES
</code>

===== Mapping =====
==== Windows ====

in ''File Browser'', 
  - right click ''🖥️ This PC'' on the left side bar. 
  - select "Map Network Drive"
  - Select ''L:\'' as the drive and enter ''%%\\acct.upmchs.net\oac\bea_res%%'' as the address

==== MacOS ====
Reminder: you must be on the UPMC network, likely hardwire to the ethernet within the loeffler building


See [[https://support.apple.com/lt-lt/guide/mac-help/mchlp1140/mac|mac guide]], briefly
  - Finder -> "Go" in top bar -> "Connect to Sever"
  - ''%%//upmcid@acct.upmc.edu/oac/bea_res/%%''



==== Linux ====

For wired single-user computers, it's worth creating a permanent mount.

''/etc/fstab'' might look like
<code>
//acct.upmchs.net/OAC/BEA_RES        /Volumes/L/bea_res  cifs    users,nobrl,credentials=BEARESCRED,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=1000,rw,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,noperm 0 2
</code>

where ''BEARESCRED'' is the the path to a file like
<code>
username=USER_WITHOUT_AT_UPMC
password=PASSWORD
domain=1upmc-acct
</code>
