    Description

      Feedback from Gail Lift about how getting started with PSPNG could have been easier with documentation improvements.

      From grouper-users, Jan 22, 2018:

       
      The note to Bill was mostly "here's an area that could use a bit of beginner documentation". Once you get over being a beginner, you tend to forget the problems pretty quickly, so I dashed off a note before I forgot. Our confusion went something like this:-- "Did you install PSPNG?" "That installs with everything else, right?"
       
      – I don't see the provision_to attribute
       
      – Is PSPNG even installed? How could we check?
       
      – Here's an email saying patch 0 adds the attributes. Let's try patching. That worked; PSPNG must be installed. Still no provision_to, though.
       
      – Hmm, here's an email saying it doesn't create any attributes until first invoked. OK, how do we invoke it?
       
      – Which attributes should we create in grouper-loader.properties, which in the New UI?
       
      Chris, I did see the page you mentioned, and am about to see if I can follow it (ldap, not AD). I will probably go wrong somewhere and need help!
