ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ/EVMS Technology Integration

Over the next few months, you'll receive a series of messages about the transition and integration between the technology services at EVMS and the services provided at ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ. Taking one step at a time, we will establish your new ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ identity and email address, then connect your computer to ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ systems using these new logins. This page outlines each step in this transition, and will be updated as we go along.


Technology Help

The ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ and EVMS Help Desks have joined forces, with addition technicians to answer your questions and resolve issues around the clock. The EVMS phone number and email address for IT support remain active; you can reach us using the contact info below or continue to get help at 757-446-7400 orÌýevmsit@evms.edu.


IT Town Hall

On July 29, leadership from the Division of Digital Transformation & Technology answered your questions about the ongoing migration of technology services. If you weren't able to make it, you can watch the recording here.


Your ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ Identity

By now, you should have set up your new ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ digital identity (your "MIDAS ID") which is synchronized with your EVMS identity. Your user name and password are the same on both sides (with very rare exceptions); this ID unlocks ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ and EVMS technology services. (If you still need a MIDAS ID, see this guide.)

MIDAS

The Monarch IDentity & Authorization System – ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ's ID, password and online account management system (similar to ReACT)

MONARCH-KEY

Single sign-on for access to most University IT resources using your MIDAS ID and password

LEO ONLINE

Access timesheets, paystubs, leave balances, and other administrative employee services


ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ Accounts

You automatically received access to services like email, Office 365, Google Apps and network access when we integrated. You don't need to do anything to activate these services; just log in with your ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ ID and password. Additional services, however, must be requested through MIDAS. These requests are automatically routed to the appropriate people for approval, and most accounts are processed within 24 hours.ÌýRequest the following services and accounts atÌý:

Workstation & Email Migration

One of our largest integration tasks is the migration of individual workstations and email accounts to ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ servers. This is happening a little at a time over the next several months, and we are working closely with each department to ensure that all needs are met and concerns are addressed. We will let you know exactly what date your workstation and mailbox will be migrated and what you can expect, and we will work closely with you to make sure your files are safe.

Changes to Other Technology Services

Learn what will change (and what won't)Ìýas you use services like Zoom, cloud storage, printing, badging, and more.

Email & Messaging

Use Outlook to check and manage email or access your email online at . Log in with your ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ email address (xxx@odu.edu) and MIDAS password.

Office 365

Your new version of Office will have a few new features and stronger cross-device support. You’ll also be licensed to download Office products on personal devices.

OneDrive

Store your files in OneDrive to access them from anywhere and free up space on your computer's hard drive, allowing your device to perform better.Ìý

Teams

Microsoft Teams combines persistent chat, file collaboration, instant messaging, and meetings in a single platform.

VPN

If you currently have access to the EVMS VPN, you will have access to ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ's VPN after the transition. If you need access, learn more about ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ's VPN here.

Printing on Campus

Print to any printer from your ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ-managed workstation or from a personal computer connected to ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ's VPN.

ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ Workstations

Learn about our computing standards, software installation and file storage, or get a quote for a new computer.

Software

Before a new piece of software is introduced at ÌÒ»¨ÉçÇøÊÓƵ, we need to review it for compatibility and security, especially if it will require the collection of personal data.

WiFi

EVMS WiFi networks will continue to work, but you might consider using the eduroam network, which is available across all campuses (and at institutions across the world).

Telecommunications

Contact telecommunications for help with VOIP (voice over internet protocol), business cell phones, voicemail and more.
