...
- For all TAs and for all staff.
- Expect prep work in fall 2013.
- Thus, expect implementation/ cut-over no sooner than winter break.
Review Becky's needs of Grades DB
...
- Tu will work with Roger.
- Tu needs IP addresses. Roger can do the installs.
- And Roger may have better alternatives. :-)
Confirm PatH's MacroExpress scripts work with server-based FMPro.
- PatH to confirm right away.
Change all TA access to be by NetID (and FMPro p/w), instead of their name
- PatH to make the appropriate updates soon.
- This is not to be confused with enabling true NetID-based access, using CU's NetID p/w's.
- PatH must reinforce to TA Grads that they should //not// use their true NetID p/w's!!
Test PatH's restore procedure.
...
- Do via AD group. Enable only "Admin" accounts, not ChemIT staff's user accounts. (Right, Roger?)
- Tu to work with Roger.
Change all TA access to be by NetID (and FMPro p/w), instead of name.
Ensure FMPro access by TAs and a few staff
- Ensure that all "single account set up for a whole course for use by many TAs" is cleaned up. (Legacy capability which is no longer needed. And confuses things now.)
- Dani and PatH
- Ensure works from systems at: TA room, DanL, CynthiaK, and Sam's.
- MichaelH.
- Create appropriate "read-only" account for Becky to allow her to continue doing exports herself.
- Roger (working with Becky)
- Outline some options, for later focus. (Unlikely do any other changes right now!)
Shut off access to old ChemIT-run instance (Win7 VM). "Legacy Grades".
- Per 8/15/13 meeting, do anytime. Not being used now- no current data and not being updated anymore.
- Roger to do.
Decisions, processes, and procedures
Make appropriate changes to source FMPro data
- Change all TA access to be by NetID (and FMPro p/w), instead of their name.
- This keeps the access process the same as it was, but:
- Enables the correct access restrictions via the web application.
- Facilitates transition to trueNetID-based access, as a future project.
- This keeps the access process the same as it was, but:
Establish procedure for PatH to update web-hosted data. "Push the button".
...
- A&S is providing the FMPro server hosting services.
- This includes performing and confirming back-ups and restore procedures, especially focus on addressing an infrastructure problem at their end.
- A&S staff can Design/ Creation on a case-by-case basis
- This will usually require Frank's approval.
Map out transition steps remaining
- Change direction of cname, <grades.chem.cornell.edu> from old to new instance.
- ChemIT needs a date.
- Doing this means other systems (2 computers in TA room; Becky's computer) automatically cut-over. :-)
- Shut off access to old ChemIT-run instance (Win7 VM). "Legacy Grades".
- ChemIT needs a date.
- When add access via AD groups?
