Tegrity Deletions

The IT department will delete Tegrity recordings from the SMU Tegrity database on October 21, 2011.

Only Tegrity files from the semesters of 2010W2, 2010M2 (last spring semesters) or prior, will be deleted.

2010W3, 2010M3, 2011W1, 2011M1 will remain intact, as well as any organizations or courses that don't match that naming criteria.

If there are recordings you would like to keep from a previous semester, there are 3 options available to you.

1) Move those recording(s) to a current semester offering.

2) Create an Image CD of the classes you would like to archive. This process zips up the recordings into a file that you can then extract and save.

3) Log a call at the Helpdesk to request that we not delete those class recordings.

The HelpDesk will need to have the specific course ID to pass along to IT staff.

Also, Organization leaders, if you can, clean out recordings that are no longer relevant, it would aid in responsible use of SMU IT resources.

Please email helpdesk@smumn.edu, or call ext. 7800, if you have any questions or concerns regarding this matter.

Please note:

-- that unless you contact the Helpdesk with the recordings to saved, the Tegrity files listed above will be deleted.

-- this will only delete Tegrity recordings, it does not affect the course listings in Blackboard in any way.

Thank you for your cooperation,

SMU IT Dept.
