Hi Juan,
Very happy to see this one which actually closes an annoying gap!
One thing which is missing is user management- add/remove/change
users and groups. If we do not plan to handle it within ovirt, the
design should state it and explain how user management should work.
Shouldn't this be the same as in case of external directory service? i.e - you manage
user/group at the directory service, and then you "populate" engine with it (by
adding permissions to users/groups or adding explicitly new users/groups to engine?)
Also, what happens when a user is removed from the local DB- will
all references to him be removed? Groups?
IMHO the behavior in this case should be as in case of current LdapBroker.
Thanks for a very important contribution!
Doron
