Task #2333
Story #2331: Identity portal replication
Portal certificate store replication
0%
Description
CILogon portal delegation uses different types of "transaction stores" to keep track of authenticated users and their certificates (that it uses when proxying for them). I was using the file system-based store, but am migrating to the Postgres-based store so that we can use the pgpool replication utility to sync the postgres databases for the portal across the three CNs.

Waiting to confirm that the DB-based transaction store can indeed be used. Initial setup/testing with pgpool is promising but I have not yet set up cn-dev-* with this feature. Still "proof-of-concepting" it

- Status changed from New to Rejected
I was getting inconsistent pgpool replication across the three cn-dev instances. We decided for now we would just share a single Postgres install and let all three CN portal web apps share it. Means there is a single failure point (the db server) but we will live with this weakness for first public release.
