==Migration==

JHU is migrating users from JHBox to JHOne Drive.  They expect to be completed by January, 2020.  Here is an email from JHU that was released to the JHU Sysadmins regarding the migration:

===October 16, 2019 email from JHU...===

:"We continue to pilot and fine tune the migration process with the Microsoft FastTrack services. We will complete a few more pilots before announcing the migration plan for the remaining JHBox accounts, which we expect to complete by ''January 2020''. On ''October 30, 2019'', in preparation for the migration, storage will initially be set at zero MB for ''all new JHBox accounts'' to allow continued collaboration until all JHBox accounts have been migrated. Should new JHBox customers need storage prior to their migration to JHOneDrive, they may submit a Help Desk ticket to request an increase."

====What will the user experience? (taken from JHU's email)====

* When a user logs into https://my.jh.edu and selects the JHBox quick link, they will be taken to a splash page informing them of their collaboration status and encouraged to begin using JHOneDrive. This splash page will also provide documentation about the JHBox to JHOneDrive migration.

* If a user goes to JHBox directly and creates a new account, they will not see the splash page, but their accounts will still be created for collaboration purposes only.
