Future Ready Cloud Collaboration Migration Checklist - Mac

Summary

Checklist of items to prepare for the Future Ready Cloud Collaboration migration for Mac users.

Body

Objective

These are the steps PC users should take to prepare for the Future Ready Cloud Collaboration Migration.

Users

Faculty and Staff listed in the migration list on a nightly basis.

Other Information

The Future Ready Cloud Collaboration project will dramatically simplify the available communication and association or teamwork between campuses, enable the adoption of bundled Microsoft 365 services and reduce the overall cybersecurity risk. 

To assist with the transfer of your email address and device (laptop or desktop), ITS has provided this checklist. Please contact your campus ITS Help Center (LoperTECH, HukertTECH, or MavTECH) with any questions. 

Before Your Scheduled Migration

These steps can be completed any time before your scheduled migration date:

Ensure that all updates are installed and completed on your laptop or desktop 

If you use OneDrive:

Ensure that you are signed in on OneDrive, and the Sync is clear of errors: OneDrive > Settings > Sync this OneDrive

Generate your OneDrive Sharing Report to see what files you will need to reshare after migration

Day of your schedule migration

At the end of your work day, do NOT power off your device. You can log out and/or lock it, but do NOT turn it off.

If your device is on campus, ensure that it is connected to the network.  

Your migration will begin at 6:00PM (CT). If your device is in your home office (not on campus) ensure your laptop or desktop is connected to the network using VPN

Day after your scheduled migration 

Log into your machine 15-20 minutes prior to starting your work day. The migration agent needs to finalize some steps before you can start your work and you may need some extra time to address any issues and ensure everything is working correctly.

Reconnect to Eduroam on all devices using your username (NUID@nebraska.edu). Note: You may need to log onto Eduroam before you are able to log into your device.

Sign into the PrinterLogic Print Agent to find printers to allow printing to continue. 

Remap any local printers (is there a public KB article for this?)

Log into all Microsoft 365 apps (OneDrive, Teams, SharePoint) and Office 365 apps (Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.) using your username (NUID@nebraska.edu)

Re-share links from SharePoint as these links will have been updated with the migration. 

Re-share links from your OneDrive as these links will have been updated with the migration.

Sign into Office 365 or email apps on any secondary devices such as phones or tablets using your username (NUID@nebraska.edu). This will ensure that you continue to receive emails and messages on these devices.
