Migration from Vireo 3 to Vireo 4 will happen in several steps and will require several interactions with TDL. There will be a period where a Vireo 4 migration server and the current Vireo 3 server will both be active. This will allow you and your colleagues time to customize and test drive Vireo 4. When it is time to completely migrate to Vireo 4 then a final migration of all interim activity on Vireo 3 can be ported to the running Vireo 4 instance by the lead TDL developer.

System and account setup
TDL will establish a Vireo 4 server for your institution. Initially this server will have a URL which is comprised of the name of your institution followed by '-migrate-etd.tdl.org.' When it is time to close down Vireo 3 and use Vireo 4 exclusively then the current Vireo 3 URL can be updated to point to the Vireo 4 server and the '-migrate-etd' domain name will be dropped.
Once you’ve received notification from TDL that your Vireo 4 instance is ready, TDL will ask you to create an account for administering the site for the entire institution. This will just be created as a regular account. (Depending on what is in place at this time for your institution this could be a shibboleth account or an email password account).Once this account is created For most if not all institutions this will be a shibboleth based account. You will sign in with your university credentials. If necessary we can also set up a server for username/password accounts.
Once you have signed in for the first time, please contact TDL and identify the account. A TDL developer will provide administrative role privileges to this account.
