CN Approve Member Node Registration

cn-ucsb-1, cn-unm-1, cn-orc-1.dataone.org

There is not a really good notification system in place, other than someone gets an email, that a node needs to be approved. So, if you know a node needs approval, the first step is to review the ldap entry for the node.

You can review all membernodes by executing the command on the CN:

ldapsearch -x -W -D cn=admin,dc=dataone,dc=org -W -H ldap://localhost:389 -b 'dc=org' 'd1NodeType=mn'

You can review all the content related to a new node id with the command :

ldapsearch -x -W -D cn=admin,dc=dataone,dc=org -W -H ldap://localhost:389 -b 'dc=org' 'd1NodeId=NODEID'

If the node structure looks good, then you will need to approve the node:

/usr/local/bin/dataone-approve-node

you will be prompted with a list of nodes that are unapproved

Type in the number of node to approve. Verify that the selection is correct and you’re done.
