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.

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

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

5

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.
