Hi Chris,

 

I have attached below screenshots (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BwgGnZC7vA-6eFVUMThjUzNWc0k):

• Departmental Loader - Configuration
  
• Rollup Loader - Configuration
  
• Departmental.jpg – Showing folders and group’s structure.
  
• Hierarchy 1.jpg – Showing Networking Apps group with one member added to it.
  
• Hierarchy 2.jpg – Showing Networking Research group with one member added to it.
  
• Hierarchy 3.jpg – Showing Networking Dept - All group is linked directly to the subgroups (Networking Apps & Networking Research) and members are added indirectly to it.
  
• Hierarchy 4.jpg – Showing Information Tech - All group is linked directly to the subgroups (Networking Dept - All) and members are not added to the group (BUG).
  

 

Issue: As shown in the Hierarchy 4.jpg screenshot, in the top level group (Information Tech – All), the subgroups are linked, but the members from the subgroups are not shown (after loader run). However, after manually deleting the Networking Dept – All group from the top level group, and re-running the loader, the members are shown in the top level group (Refer to screenshot Manually Delete.jpg). Not sure why grouper loader only links all members after manually deleting the group from the top level. Any guidance is truly appreciated.

 

Please let me know if you need more details.

 

Thank you,

Akki

I understand you have a problem but I cant really understand what it is by your email.  Can you send along the loader configuration and be a little more explicit with screenshots etc?

 

Thanks

Chris

Subject: Hierarchical Loader Bug

 

Hi Chris,

 

I created Organization Hierarchical groups using two loaders:

• Departmental Hierarchy
• Rollup Hierarchy

 

When I ran the Rollup Hierarchy loader, and it link group as described below (screenshot):

1)  All groups under Networking Dept folder are linked to the Networking Dept – All group, and it shows all linked group members under the Networking Dept – All. (Expected Behavior)

2)  All groups under Networking Dept – All group are futher linked to the Information Tech – All group, but it didn’t show members of the sub-groups (such as Networking Dept group). (Bug)

However, during testing, I noticed that when I manually delete the Networking Dept – All group from the Information Tech – All group and then re-run the Rollup Hierarchies loader, it would link the Networking Dept – All groups and also show all members of its sub-groups. As per logs, the loader is running successfully and there are no errors.

 

We are baffled by the loader behavior and checking to see if there are any solution for the bug. (We are using Grouper 2.2.2)

 

 

Thank you,

Akki
