Grouper Users - Open Discussion List

[Chris Hyzer <>]

Unfortunately, currently if you make a new loader job you will need to 
restart the loader.  If there is an existing job, and you change some 
settings, then the next time the job runs, it should apply the new settings.

I added a jira to look into making this better:

https://bugs.internet2.edu/jira/browse/GRP-375

Not sure when it will be fixed, but I think it is a good and useful idea.

Thanks,
Chris

Subject: [grouper-users] loader not noticing new grouperLoaderQuartzCron 
entries?

Hello,

after creating a new group in the Admin UI with the type grouperLoader
and an attribute grouperLoaderQuartzCron, the running loader daemon
did not notice it and thus did not update the group at the required
times.  Restarting the "gsh.sh -loader" process fixed the problem so
it was not a case of bad group configuration.

- Is there a way to configure the loader to notice new entries?

If not:
- Is there way to tell the Grouper loader process to reread the
  grouperLoaderQuartzCron entries, so that it does not miss any
  scheduled task (a risk when restarting)?
  E.g. something like the common "kill -HUP pid" on Unix.


Thanks in advance for your answers!

Dominique
