Disable workspace after project archiving

[egoncharov]

How to disable workspace (in home page pwa) and access to it after project
archiving.

We have MOPS 2007. I used recomendations for Project server 2003
(http://www.projectserverexperts.com/ProjectServerFAQKnowledgeBase/ArchiveCompletedProjects.aspx)
with some modernization. It works fine but I can not disable access to
workspaces of completed projects.

There are a number of way to help in this area, below are some of the ways to
do it:
1. Remove the Project Workspace Web part from home page, teach users to
access the workspaces from Project Center page. I think this is more secure
and better, as it gets users to looking at timelines and project dates, and
creates a cleaner home page.
2. Remove the link to the workspace in the workspace admin page and or point
to a custom page that says project is closed.
3. Replace Project Workspace Web part with custom or third party web part or
a SSRS report that will not display closed projects
4. Archive the WSS artiffacts using STSADM and delete the workspace, as it
can be restore from the archive.


Hope this Helps

Thanks for the answers, Ray!

Would you like to say how can I Archive the WSS artiffacts using STSADM?

Take a look at the stsadm -o export/import operations. Below is a link

Our Archive Tool will build the STSAdm batch files to do this, for you.

Hope this helps
