Configuring Battalion File Servers

Abstract

Battalions require a file server on their local LAN both in Garrison and on deployments for rapid collaboration and continuity in data between garrison and deployment environments. With the usage of Army Gold Master Microsoft Server operating systems, the Army is not spending additional money for the operating system. Less than one week of training for two 25B MOS is all that is needed for an S6 shop to adequately employ a file and print server capabilities. Maneuver battalions are constantly leveraging technology to better command and control the fight. They are keenly aware that battalions that collaborate faster and more effectively will be more successful in engaging with and destroying the enemy or conducting peacetime operations with the highest potential.
