  1. UFP/CS Development (Core 2) David Hart, SDSC

  2. Q2 2009 Development Highlights • User Requests, Managament • User Authentication • User Access • Resource Requests, POPS • Resource Description Repository (RDR) • Accounting System • Catalogs and News

  3. User Requests and Authentication • User Requests, Management • New “new user” process in place this week. • No 5-day wait for RPs. Postal mail goes out (to the PI) with new user’s TGUP login/pwd as soon as user is vetted. • New documentation in place. • Will be watching this closely for repercussions. • Portal-initiated remove-user requests now processed automatically (next AMIE cycle) • User Authentication • Document in progress describing design for allowing users to create their own TGUP logins • Implementation will mean end of “POPS logins” and end of snail mail. • Version will be ready for wider distribution by end of July.

  4. User Access • User Access • TACC has prototyped mobile.teragrid.org site (not at this URL, yet) for iPhone. • Will be discussing with IU about integrating KB. • Web services interface to TGCDB info for users (Rion D.) • Essentially another way to get at tgusage information

  5. POPS and RDR • Resource Requests, POPS Enhancements • Pops-admin changes to integrate processing steps, support allocations staff • Changes to pops-review to provide template that supports the review criteria • Changes to support new “new user” process. • Next Focus: Eliminating repetitive data entry for supplements, justifications, renewals. • Resource Description Repository (RDR) • On track for test deployment for evaluation by RPs by end of July. • Site reps will be contacted by Ed and Rob

  6. Accounting, Catalogs, News • Accounting System • TGCDB failover hardware installed. Moving TGCDB primary server to TG network for faster replication next week. • Tgusage v3.0 deployed as current version. Much faster. • Catalogs and News • Getting closer with IIS-based software (CTSS & third-party) catalog. Prototype/beta version will be coming soon. • Interesting idea from TG09: integrate user news/system outages with Twitter. Diana/Fariba will be looking into it.
