What Loyola's Move to Microsoft Exchange Means for You

After careful consideration, the decision was made to delay the full HSD migration to Microsoft Exchange. As a result, only the the Marcella Niehoff School of Nursing, the Health Sciences Library, and first-year medical students, were moved as part of the May 2013 upgrade.

We expect the rest of HSD to move to Microsoft Exchange in the coming months. The additional time will allow Trinity the opportunity to accelerate the planning and migration of LUHS to their Exchange environment and for both organizations to further plan and manage the changes for faculty and staff, particularly those that work across both organizations. 

Now that the initial upgrade to Microsoft Exchange is complete, certain features are not available between HSD and LUHS on GroupWise and University colleagues on Exchange:

• Calendars – You cannot perform a free/busy calendar search with anyone who has moved to Exchange (and they cannot connect to your calendar in this way).
• Proxy – You cannot proxy to a mailbox or calendar for anyone who has moved to Exchange (and they cannot proxy to your mailbox or calendar).
• Address book – Users who have moved to Exchange do not appear in the health system's global address book. Some of these people may remain in your address book as part of your personal contacts list; you may also use the Loyola University Chicago faculty and staff directory to look up addresses that you need.

We will keep you updated on the schedule and details of the HSD move as they become available. If you have questions about the migration, please send a note to emailproject@luc.edu.
