Subject: the recent problem with project-db

Recently, when I was away on vaccation, a member of IS could not insert
a new project into the DB. The cause of the failure was that he
was not in the is_people table. As I may be away from my desk everynow and then
(like next week when I am at USENIX) I put together the instructions for
correcting such a problem.
as root on arachne (I added wdc.root and mbarker.root to .klogin on arachne) :
to check/add krbprincipal to is_people (e.g. miki)
su - oracle
svrmgrl
> connect pdb/pdb100;
> select uname from is_people where uname like 'krbprincipal%';
(e.g 'miki%')
[if the select yields no record]
> insert into is_people values('krbprincipal_web'); (e.g miki_web)
> commit;
> quit;
I hope that it will not be necessary, but....
Miki.
