HealthIRL migration

User accounts, devices and mailboxes will be moved from our 8 legacy regional domains to a single domain in the HealthIRL migration programme.

Migrating to HealthIRL is essential for cloud and cyber security, and a key recommendation in the HSE cyber-attack post-incident review report.

Preparing for migration

The HealthIRL migration programme is technically challenging and complex, unpicking 30 years of legacy issues across regional areas. It may reveal unique issues as the programme deploys across the country. Our technology office commits to addressing these issues promptly, and supporting teams throughout migration.

What we need from you

Every HSE building, department and staff member will move to HealthIRL. Users at every level of the organisation should prioritise HealthIRL migration when in your area.

Moving your account and device to HealthIRL includes you:

filling in a template enabling HealthIRL team to do pre-checks on your account and device
getting an email from HealthIRL team validating your information and scheduling your migration
agreeing a time and onsite location for an engineer to migrate you to HealthIRL
being off-line for about 1-2 hours during the migration, depending on account and device complexity
carrying out post-migration checks with the engineer to ensure you can access everything you need
