User information : jts users or ccm users ??
While tracing OSLC information I have come across the fact that there seems to be two representations of each user. One accessible via jts and another via ccm. How are these related and what are the implications ?
If I trace OSLC information from : "Root Service - Service Provider Catalog - Project Are Details - Project Team Member Details - A specific user" I get a jts representation .... Note that the actual server address is changed to ..H.. <rdf:RDF <rdf> <j> <j.1:mbox rdf:resource=<user>/> <j>mark</j> <j>Mark Roberts</j> </rdf> </rdf> If I trace the structure of OSLC from : Root Servce - Service Provider Catalog - Service Description for Project - Work Items ( from the simple Query) - follow the rtc_cm:ownedBy attribute and I get this ccm representation : <rtc_cm> <rtc_cm>mark</rtc_cm> <dc>Mark Roberts</dc> <rtc_cm><user> <rtc_cm> </rtc_cm> I can work with the differences in data representation but I just want to make sure I understand why there are two and how the jts and ccm users are linked together. Are there two user representations in the databases (jts and ccm) or is there one and I am looking at it in two different ways ? Thanks Mark |

Hi Mark,
It is my understanding that the JTS is responsible for syncing its copy of the user information with each of the applications (such as CCM) that are linked to that JTS. That way you can just synchronize the JTS user information with your LDAP server, and have that user information automatically synchronized with all the applications associated with that JTS. So that means that there are distinct user records for the same user in JTS and CCM, but that the JTS is responsible for keeping them in sync. Now as to why the OSLC representations of a user are different in the JTS and the CCM application I'll have to defer to the OSLC gurus.
