MSIT Self-Hosting of ILM “2”

  • Artykuł

I got a few questions over the weekend about this, and I would like to clarify the nature and scope of the self-hosting of ILM “2”.  MSIT intends to replace our internal app AutoGroup with ILM “2” for self-service group management and to replace calls to helpdesk with ILM “2” for self-service password reset.  Cost reduction is the key reason for these changes.

Since Microsoft is a large enterprise, MSIT has planned deployment in phases.  Right now, only distribution lists owned by the product group are managed in ILM “2”.  If you look at the DLs I own on AutoGroup and try to add a member, you’ll see a nice error message pointing you to use ILM “2”.  Next we will expand to multiple product groups, and we will repeat until we will include all DLs at Microsoft.  This isn’t the right forum to communicate dates or the exact plan, but MSIT will send you a notice and offer training when appropriate.
