14. The URS, New Accounts, Terminated Accounts

All accounts on Cosmos and Eric (except VIP accounts on Eric) have corresponding entries in the URS. Accounts are now created via the following procedure:

  1. "Cosmos" account is created in the URS for a user.
  2. Necessary attributes are added to the LDAP front end to the NDS, padl.umist.ac.uk.
  3. Account is created on Cosmos and the user is emailed.
This procedure is not yet fully automated, but could be made so.

Accounts are terminated via the following proceedure:

  1. A username expires in the URS.
  2. Account is removed from Cosmos and associated files compressed.
Again, not yet fully automated...
