As noted previously, employee email accounts are undergoing a migration from being located on campus to living in “the cloud” on servers managed by Microsoft. The migration will occur Tues., May 19.
To help minimize the impact of this process, TSS staff will be stationed around campus on the morning of the migration starting at approximately 8 a.m. They’ll be at:
- 1000 Bldg.
- PUB
- FOSS
- VCT
- Nursing
- 1300, 1400, 1500 —> TSS staff will swing in and out as time allows.
- Music —> Owen Strain will be the point person
After staying a while, if there is no activity, the TSS staff may visit another location or head back to their office.
You can always get help by calling the TSS helpline at 206-546-5872 or submit a support request at help.shoreline.edu.
The migration process is expected to be complete by 12 p.m.
How Can I Prepare?
Microsoft Outlook is the product TSS recommends for email, calendar, and contacts. Using Outlook on whatever device you are using should provide the least disruption.
What Will Happen on My Work PC?
- On a campus PC, you will be prompted to quit and restart Outlook once the migration has completed for your account.
What Will Happen on My Personal (non-work) Phone or Computer?
- Older computers/devices may stop working. In that case you will need to access employee email and calendars via mail.shoreline.edu
- You will likely need to delete your email account from your device and then re-add it.
