The format for the new username is username{suffix}@email.com. For example, if Charles Darnay's username is charles.darnay@classics.com, and if the suffix is .totc, then his username in the new tenant would be charles.darnay.totc@classics.com.
Your agents are prompted to create a new password upon entering their new username.

After the emergency is over and your primary tenant is working properly, your agents can log in to your primary tenant with their original username and password.
