Today was spent remotely managing Mac Servers. There was an issue at Golda Meir School - the server got corrupted to the point that it would not reboot, nor would it read the disk utility. Basically, the server was started up with a different drive, wiped, repaired and re-cloned. Later this summer, all of the student accounts will be reset, once enrollment is verified.
At this point of the year, the server was wiped clean of all student work. It was not necessary to save, because the students are not required to keep a formal portfolio. This whole process took about 5 hours from start to finish. If this were to happen during the school year, a reboot from a saved backup would be done and the server would be up in about 10 minutes.
We also reset some other computers, and did some testing and cleaning on the main servers hear at the Tech Center.
