soccnx iii - connections administration: understand the challenge ... and find your way how to do it
DESCRIPTION
Speakers: Otto Foerg Felix BinsackConnections administration is not easy. The administrator has to work from the WebSphere "wsadmin" command-line interface where he has to enter a lot of commands to accomplish one simple task. Everything is case-sensitive, temporary variables must be used to transfer values between commands. It can take some time to find out which combination of commands solves a certain problem. People responsible for Connections administration often are not familiar to do their job this way. This session gives an overview of how Connections administration works and the challenges an administrator is facing. We will show some typical examples and how they are solved using the out-of-the-box Connections administration techniques. Additionally we will introduce the "Connections Administration Toolkit (CAT)", a web-based application offering a graphical interface instead of a command-line. CAT reduces dramatically the complexity of Connections administration and the time needed to perform administrative tasks .TRANSCRIPT

How Connections Administration Works
! Configuration: ! XML file repository ! 30+ files ! 6,000+ lines of XML ! 425+ parameters
! Changing configurations: ! wsadmin ! Check-out / check-in
procedure ! Manually edit XML files
! wsadmin: ! Case-sensitive command line
administering ! Manually enter commands ! Complex command syntax ! 300+ commands ! Several commands for 1 task ! Variables to transfer values
between commands ! Type conversion for variables ! Copy & paste values from
Connections databases

wsadmin Example: Add a New Member to an Activity
! 1. Start wsadmin command line environment: wsadmin –lang jython –user <wasadmin> -password <password>
! 2. Load Activities Python Script: execfile("activitiesAdmin.py")
! 3. Store the new member into a temporary variable: newMember=ActivitiesMemberService.fetchMemberByName(“John Doe”)
! 4. Store the activity into a tempory variable: act=ActivityService.fetchActivityById ("FFFGc66a55370a2c423eafa5bd0a4b443a70”) *) *) Additional operations required to get the UUID of the activity
! 5. Convert the variables from “hash” to “vector”: from java.util import Vector newMemberVec = Vector() newMemberVec.add(newMember) actVec = Vector() ActVec.add(act)
! 6. Add the new member to the activity: AccessControlService.setMembersAccess(actVec,newMemberVec)

Benefits User Management with CAT
! See all user related data in all db‘s at a glance ! Solve synchronization problems by simply inactivating and
reactivating a user in PROFILES – this helps in many cases! ! Find out if a user has different GUID‘s in the Connections
dbs and solve any problems by directly synchronizing the user between LDAP and feature db‘s
! After a UID change in LDAP: Give the user the same UID in PROFILES – and he will be synced again
! Delete a user‘s data from PROFILES so that TDI can reimport them from scratch
! Detect whether a user‘s login items are associated with a different user / GUID, preventing the user from accessing the feature - and delete the respective values
