Metadirectory Technical Status Meeting
https://fsuid.fsu.edu/admin
6/22/2004

  • Project Status
    • New schema (http://fsuid.fsu.edu/admin/fsuid-schema.html) & viewer (http://fsuid.fsu.edu/viewer)
    • Completed action items from last update: Have a regular feed of HRMS ßà FSUIDs to ERP (hope to roll into nightly HRMS feed directly); added a RADIUS timeout value for Stursa/ERP; Set up an “MDSDEV” tree for eDirectory development (same schema, different data – currently being used by Derek Dean for his Secure Login rewrite).  Have added FSUID & FSUSN to test USER_ACCT DB2 table.  Formalized internal IS metadirectory team structure & regular meeting schedule.
    • User support/issues regarding FSUID use is increasing; some manual interventions (name changes, incomplete CARS entries, etc.)
  • Action Items
    1. [IS] Set up “Outlook account enabler” web page and have OTI create new FSU AD accounts disabled by default (this will force Outlook ßà FSUID associations)
    2. [UCS, IS] Disable the ability for people to change their passwords using the “native” interface for CARS, Secure Login (re-direct to fsuid.fsu.edu) and Active Directory (AD should be done; waiting on others).
    3. [IS, Ethan] Move Oracle tables from ODDL machine (“larissa4”) to an OTI Oracle instance (On hold; data is fine where it is); Get remaining data from CARS/Oracle/fire2.fsu.edu (FSUcard type1 & type 2, Privacy (Publish) flag, phone number, student status ; Finish “production-izing” all eDir instances (put “modify” Perl scripts in cron on mdsoti, get backups on mdsoti, etc.) (ongoing)
    4. [IS] Build FSUID web page for ERP “visitor” accounts.  Use “vis-loginname” convention for FSUIDs (needs to be designed & built)
    5. [IS, Ethan] Continue researching/tweaking eDirectory performance options (split FSUID web pages from master eDir server?)
    6. [IS] Continue converting “raw” web pages into cleaner interfaces (continuing work on fsuid.fsu.edu; Helpdesk re-design meetings called); continue to fix user accessibility features in http://fsuid.fsu.edu.  Re-enable Secure Login as one of the possible authentication methods.
    7.  [IS, ODDL] – Connect C.A.S. to Secure Login, Blackboard & FSUID, all pointing to eDir.  Continue to investigate using RFC2307 for departmental UNIX authentication.
    8. [IS]  Set up NWR/ERP development eDir box (sdeved01) (on hold, but we do have a true development eDir instance in IS – “mdsdev.ais.fsu.edu”)
    9. [IS, Ethan – longer term] Actually get DirXML connections configured and going for ldap1, ldap2, etc.  Migrate the functionality away from the “home grown” Perl scripts to using the Novell software.
    10. [IS, Ethan] Build the FSU AD shim/remote loader/password sync install (when OTI WSG deems it “safe”).  Populate appropriate user fields/re-arrange the OUs within AD using the information in the eDir.  (Have Dave Hearn’s 3-tier list; just have to write script to populate & re-org the OUs in AD)
    11. [Chuck, other ERP HR functional people] Work HR PeopleSoft gaps connected to metadirectory (resurrect Keith Hamilton’s PeopleCode for eDir sync)
    12. [Group – longer term] Continue working SSN à FSNSN replacement discussions with campus & design “FSUSN” algorithm (new SSN-like private attribute) – (IS has an initial level of effort – almost 10,000 hours!)
