1 IT Infrastructure Transformation – Agency Startup of Detailed Discovery Phase 0 Messaging and Directory Services (MDS) Messaging End User and Agency Directory Migration

2 IT Infrastructure Transformation – Agency Startup of Detailed Discovery Phase 1 Project Description The end user migration project will migrate in-scope agency users from their current e-mail system to an enterprise messaging platform. The Commonwealth of Virginia (COV) currently has approximately 67,000 users spread across 85 state agencies. This project will consolidate those users onto a new system starting in 2007 and continuing through 2009. A new supporting Active Directory and Exchange infrastructure will be deployed to support this migration and the requirements defined by the customer. This includes redundancy at a strategic level through data replicated between the Commonwealth Enterprise Solutions Center (CESC) and Southwest Enterprise Solutions Center (SWESC) operational sites. This project includes a directory services migration and consolidation, such as Novell, Active Directory NT4 and other Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) based directories onto a single forest, single domain Enterprise Environment. End users are migrated using a combination of Quest tools and native utilities. Messaging End User and Agency Directory Migration Introduction

3 IT Infrastructure Transformation – Agency Startup of Detailed Discovery Phase 2 Messaging End User and Agency Directory Migration Benefits What’s in it for You? Enterprise class Microsoft Exchange environment –Secured communications without accessing the Internet –Secured access from external locations –Ability to share information with security controls Access to team collaboration sites –Ability to share data via Share Point –Ability to share Calendars among agencies –Instant messaging and live communications such as Net meeting 24 hours a day x 7 days a week messaging support Continuation of critical services in the event of an outage: enterprise class failover

4 IT Infrastructure Transformation – Agency Startup of Detailed Discovery Phase 3 Messaging End User and Agency Directory Migration Platform Enterprise Messaging Exchange Platform Consolidated Directory Services - This may have an impact on agency applications using fixed IP addresses and hard coded names. Server, desktop, and printer names may change to reflect the new COV naming standards 100MB mailbox standard size limitations - VITA is working to develop cost information for larger mailbox sizes and will provide that information at a later date 90 day e-mail retention policy - Mail stored in the local mailbox is deleted after 90 days. Agency may request set up of auto archiving feature to save e-mail older than 90 days to an agency determined location Unified messaging support Fax services Shared calendaring Share Point services
