Legacy EDIR Documentation - Beth Mercer

All of Beth's text file documents will be placed in this node. The following are the documentation topics as found in the Documentation directory. As I read each page, I will replace the file name reference to something more meaningful. I also will put it into a more logical format for browsing.

Finally, I am using this as a way to record what has changed from when E boxes performed all processing (AUTHSERV, EDIR Self-Service, and LDAP repository) and the core LDAP repository processing was moved to the IDMP Cluster.

Document Organization Overivew

Technical documentation for the directory project (EDIR) was organized by intended audience as indicated by the following file prefixes. The current organization is based on function since Identity and Access Management has assumed almost all functions. Beth Mercer's original organization is referenced as a prefix to the links below and in the page names.

• ALL : everyone supporting the directory project
• APACHE : individuals administering the Apache web server
• AUTH : individuals maintaining the AUTHSERV web gateway
• DS : individuals maintaining the underlying directory servers
• EDIR : individuals maintaining the EDIR web gateway
• LDAP : individuals responsible for maintaining the directory servers
• REGI : individuals responsible for maintaining registry processes
• SERV : individuals responsible for maintaining the servers hosting the directories and web gateways
• UPDT : individuals responsible for maintaining the update back end to EDIR/AUTHSERV (integrally related to registry)

iPlanet and Process_flows Categories

• iPlanet : (directory containing copies of iPlanet technical documentation)
• process_flows: (directory containing web versions of Visio documents showing process flows

Functions No Longer Applicable to Current EDIR Self-Service and AUTHSERV

• ISW : individuals responsible for configuring/maintaining ISW within the directory
• KERB : individuals responsible for supporting kerberos/directory interactions
