Print quota

LabraNet shared printers utilize a printing quota. Quota is personal and limited to 300 pages per academic year. On LabraNet workstations you can check the current quota from a tray application:

Databases: MariaDB and PostgreSQL

Our MariaDB 10.5 server is mariadb.labranet.jamk.fi

Students can create their own user for the server by going to https://mariadb.labranet.jamk.fi (only available from LabraNet workstations or over VPN), authenticating with their LabraNet login, and pushing a button. The page then tells you your new mysql password, and you can also reset your password from there if you’ve forgotten it.

The server is accessible from student.labranet.jamk.fi, and from LabraNet workstations and over VPN. We’re open to suggestions for graphical tools to recommend, but HeidiSQL and DBeaver look pretty good and are available on LabraNet workstations.

The server supports TLS (for authenticating the server only), but does not force it.

Our PostgreSQL 12.4 server is postgres.labranet.jamk.fi

Same operating principles as the mariadb server above.

External Access

Connections from LabraNet networks to Internet are generally restricted to standard TCP/UDP port numbers used by corresponding applications. This means that if you are running for example a web server somewhere on the Internet that listens to some non-standard HTTP port number (eg. 5000), the connection will be denied.

Instructions on how to solve this can be found on LabraNet_External_Access guide

Contact the LabraNet helpdesk

Note: If your matter is concerning any of the following:

• Office 365 (Email, OneDrive, Teams etc.)
• Peppi
• Moodle
• Zoom
• WLAN (Eduroam)
• Computers anywhere except in LabraNet classrooms

Then you want the JAMK helpdesk instead.

If not and you want to contact LabraNet administration, please fill out a service request.

Academic Subscriptions

Most current list of the software subscriptions JAMK participates in can be found in JAMK Helpdesk: https://helpdesk.jamk.fi/en/home-use-licenses/

Institute of Information Technology participates currently also in VMware Academic Program (VMAP), which provides one year trial licenses for VMware Virtualization software, such as VMware Workstation, vSphere Hypervisor and vCenter Server.

Sadly, after the acquisition of VMware by Broadcom, VMware Academic Program no longer exists. We recommend moving on to platforms that support individual learning and care for their users such as Proxmox
