Note: Administrators may select the default quota for these folders on the Default Folder Settings: /users page.
When a user enters the Content Collection for the first time, a folder with his or her name may automatically be created in the users directory. Administrators choose which roles these folders are created for on the Virtual Hard Drive page. For example, the Administrator may choose to have the system create folders for Instructors but not for Students. Users are given full permissions to their folders; this includes read, write, remove, and manage permissions.

Select Virtual Hard Drive under Content System on the Administrator Panel.
The following fields appear on the Virtual Hard Drive page
|
Field |
Description |
|
Virtual Hard Drive Availability |
|
|
System Availability |
Select Yes to enable the system to automatically create folders for users in the users’ directory. |
|
Roles |
Folders in the users’ directory are automatically created for users with roles that appear in the Selected Roles box. Select roles in the Available Roles box and use the arrows to move these roles to the Selected Roles box. |
Changing the System Availability may have adverse affects on users accessing their files and folders in My Content. If this option is originally set to Yes, then changed to No after users have added items to their user folders, the content will no longer appear. The content will not be removed from the system, but users will be unable to access it. If the System Availability is then returned to Yes, the content will once again appear to users.
If the Administrator removes an Institution role from the system, the folder creation settings for that user group will be lost.
