[Fiware-lab-help] migration between Spain node from FINESCE-WP4

Dear Jose, dear Henar,
this morning I got the email below about the requested migration from Spain
node to Spain-2 node.

As FINESCE WP4 responsible,  I'm wondering if this applies even to a
Use-Case project such as FINESCE. If yes, I kindly tell you that FINESCE
WP4 is not going to perform any migration, since it would be very time
consuming.

FINESCE WP4 set up an infrastructure in the FIWARE Lab with a lot of
effort, but the main goal of FINESCE WP4 is to use FIWARE GEs and implement
an energy marketplace based on FIWARE GEs (like we did!!!). We are not
supposed to perform migration activities due to a FIWARE cloud upgrade.
This is not an activity encompassed by the FINESCE project, it is an
activity that FIWARE Lab operation team should perform as part of an
"upgrade" of the services it is providing.

More, it is not fair being "threatened" to have all our resources deleted
from the Spain1 node if we do not perform such a migration.

I am very sorry to have all these people cc'ed, but I think that this
discussion does not only apply to the FINESCE WP4 case and the issue should
be risen immediately and formally.

Regards,
Pasquale and Massimiliano Nigrelli

Subject: [FIWARE Lab] Reminders regarding new Terms and Conditions
To: pasquale.andriani at eng.it


Dear FIWARE lab user,

as you know we are going to introduce some changes in the behaviour of the
Lab as a consequence of the new Terms and Conditions. This email is a
reminder of few things you have to take into account to continue enjoying
FIWARE Lab.

1. Spain1 and Prague regions will not be available anymore so if you have
cloud resources deployed there and your Community Account request has been
accepted, please, migrate those resources to Spain2 region.

2. If you have created your account before April 15th and you have accepted
the new T&C, from May 1st you will be a Trial user and you will be able to
operate only in Spain2 region. So if you have resources in other regions,
please, migrate them to Spain2 region. From May 1st and as a Trial user,
you will have a 14 days period to continue using the platform in Spain2
region. Then you can apply for a Community Account to have a longer term
environment for working on FIWARE Cloud following the application process
<http://forge.fiware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/FIWARE_Lab:_Upgrade_to_Community_Account>
.

3. In the cloud environment only organizations linked to the FIWARE
accounts could be used. Organizations that you create “by hand” using the
Account Portal interface, could not be used in the cloud scope. But don’t
worry, you will be able to share access to your organization by authorizing
other users in it. The default name of the organization linked to your
account will be “your_email cloud” (for instance “example at domain.com
cloud”) but you will be able to modify it. Take into account that other
organizations will not be accesible from the Cloud Portal anymore so,
please, migrate all the resources to your account-linked organization
before May 1st. The current name of that organization fits with your user
name.

After May 1st and as a consequence of these 3 points, FIWARE Lab providers
will not be responsible for the loss of any data.

If you have not applied for a Community account and your Trial period has
expired, you could continue using all FIWARE Lab capacities except cloud
environment. Using the Account Portal you will be able to manage your
organizations, your users and your applications in order to provide
authentication and authorization in your services as you are doing now, via
OAuth2 protocol and GEs such as Wilma PEP Proxy or AuthZForce. You have
only to take into account two updates when the new FIWARE Account release
is deployed the first week of May:

- If you are using organizations ids in your application or GE you have to
convert them adding as many zeros as necessary to make them 32 chars
length. For instance, the organization “241” now will be
“00000000000000000000000000000241”.

- If you are using users ids in your application or GE you have to take
into account that the new unique identifier will be the one that now is
retrieved as “nickName” field.

Please, take the opportune actions to update your environments according
this.

Many thanks and best regards.
