One of our general goals is for users to be able to use their Partners login credentials whenever possible; this is especially important now that semi-annual password changes are required. And so ...

One improvement now functional in our BDS software implementation is that users can use their Partners login ID an password. If you have a Partners account, enter the following at the login screen:

Username:     Partners_USERID 
Password:     Partners_PASSWORD 
Domain:       partners    

We received the following messages from Jerry Xu, (YXU11@PARTNERS.ORG) from the HPC Cluster over at MGH. We have access to that cluster. If you needto know more, let us know.

I should have posted this earlier. The server that hosts the Biscom Secure File Transfer software
has been down for several days -- this is really anomalous, and points out some senses in which we need to develop redundancy for servers that support applications -- we'll find a way to do that.

Right now, Thinkmate technicians are replacing all the RAM. We hope to have the server up this afternoon.
We will keep you posted.
