Description Alon Bar-Lev 2014-01-19 12:23:18 UTC
CURRENT IMPLEMENTATION

We define two builtin users within jasper: ovirt-admin, superuser.

These are special users with special roles within jasper.

All users that access via ovirt-engine SSO are regular users.

PROBLEM IN CURRENT IMPLEMENTATION

Users of ovirt-engine cannot manage the jasper.

Integration of ovirt-engine with SSO or directory providers will not effect the jasper built-in users.

Setup process overwrites the password policy of jasper at every upgrade.

NEW IMPLEMENTATION

Define two roles within ovirt-engine: ovirt-reports-admin, ovirt-reports-operator (or any other terms)

When performing SSO to reports, pull user's name and user's roles, and assign appropriate roles within jasper.

Remove the built-in users creation within jasper, or if cannot be removed, disable the users.

BENEFITS

Single location of defining user roles.

Single user lifecycle policy (password complexity, password expiration, removal).

Enjoy ovirt-engine integration to external authentication and directory.
