...

  • Cornell can provide Northwestern staff with a NetID if that would make things easier.
    • For example, CU Blogs exporting work.
    • Other ways doing this can help the process?

Info

  • 11 people going to Northwestern, from the current group.
  • Group has 20 Group as 19 members, per ChemIT's records on 3/4/16.
  • Also, 3 system accounts (shared by the group members)

...

Cornell Active Directory (AD), both PCs and Macs

Problem statement:

Machine names are using Cornell's AD naming convention. Northwestern likely will prefer to change these names. (smile)

Idea

  • Leave machines on Cornell's Active Directory for move.
    • This retains all passwords locally, as cached credentials. Thus logging in will work indefinitely with current accounts when device no longer at Cornell.
    • Do not let machines reconnect to Cornell's AD once NetIDs expired!
  • Change local (root) Admin Admin password (user names are: PC: ad-admin; Mac: ChemIT)
    • They tell us what they prefer as a password.
  • Move machines to Northwestern. Should "just work" as they always have.
    • Won't allow the creation of any new AD-based accounts, obviously.
  • Local IT, using local Admin, disengages them from AD. Optionally reattaches device to their AD.

...

Another possibility: Microsoft's Easy Transfer tool.

Cornell file share service (SFS)

...

  • On a specified day, turn off access to SFS so no one can change files on file share anymore.
  • All files copied to 1TB ($60-80) USB external hard drive.
    • Time estimate, if done on campus?
  • USB external hard drive taken to Northwestern and data moved to their files storage service.
  • Once confirmed all data successfully in Northwestern, then turn off Cornell's SFS file share.

...

  • Finish getting non-CU-based domain name configured correctly.
    • Group will want to inform Northwestern of this need, so they are prepared for when it moves.

  • Rework workflow, including no longer relying on use of WillRyan's Cornell-contracted Box.com account.

Printers

  • Anything to be done?
  • Northwestern may want to change the settings we set. No password needed. Currently on DHCP.

Equipment disposal or reuse in Chemistry

  • Anything?

Any grads staying?

  • If so, and not changing groups, where will they be and for how long?Ryan reviewed list with Oliver, 3/4/16.
