Hi All ! As announced multiple times (including but not limited to https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2021-February/076442.html), Fedora and CentOS will merge authentication soon. It was already merged for Staging environment, where SIGs contributors could test things and now it's time to really merge https://accounts.centos.org and https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts on the new system. Let me point you first to the mail sent to Fedora so please read it first to have a little bit of background/history : https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/announce@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/JGVRX7CSXSDJ2MV5TJNYPCGVWWI5XSNB/ As you can see, the Fedora migration will happen next week. Based on current timeline and agenda, we'll proceed like this for the CentOS migration : * Friday April 2nd : * We'll "freeze" https://accounts.centos.org in Read-only mode * Fedora infra team launches the fas2ipa script to import centos users/groups not existing (yet) in new IPA setup (if you had a fedora account matching your account in accounts.centos.org, you'll not be imported again, but rather be added to your imported centos groups - so merged -) * Monday April 5th * quick sanity check for the import script result and some internal checks, then * Real CentOS infra authentication switch : it's hard to give a timeline but we'll start with https://cbs.centos.org (I'll announce downtime in separate mail when we'll have full agenda) and then proceed with the other services. How will you be impacted ? If you use any kind of service authenticated by either TLS cert from https://accounts.centos.org (that's the case for cbs.centos.org, or mqtt notifications), you'll *have* to retrieve a new cert. (more information in the SIGGuide will appear on due time. Same for services using authentication tied to https://accounts.centos.org through https://id.centos.org (for openid/openidc, etc) So this mail doesn't contain all the information for how to retrieve new TLS cert, how to reset password, etc but more to give you the date when we'll have smallest possible downtime while reconfiguring system to switch to new authentication (FWIW, all changes were automated through ansible for our staging environment, so we'll just reapply same process for the production one) Have a nice week-end ! -- Fabian Arrotin (all excited to finally see this project arriving at deploy time) :) The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | twitter: @arrfab
