Description
Justin Robinson 2 days ago
Greetings! We are running Grouper 2.5.39 and had a group of around 7500 users. We went to add members, import a list and put in 248 in the list and checked the box to replace members. It didn’t seem to make a change running it. We had expected it would remove anyone not in the list with those that were in the imported list. Is that the correct expectation?

can you be a little more specific? did you upload file or paste in ids. did you specify the source? did you use subject ids or identifiers? what did the output say?
Chris Hyzer 2 days ago
i did a replace and it worked... let me know exactly what you did and i will try it
Chris Hyzer 2 days ago
yes, replace should remove subjects not in the list
Justin Robinson 2 days ago
We pasted in the ids. We tried specifying the source and tried without. We used a list of 248 subject identifiers and on a group that had ~7500.

i tried on a smaller list and it did perform as expected.
Chris Hyzer 2 days ago
smaller list of ids pasted in, or smaller group size, or both?
Justin Robinson 2 days ago
both - not a great comparison :slightly_smiling_face:
Justin Robinson 2 days ago
list was ~1300 and i said to keep one id

i’ll recreate the original setup and try that in our non-prod env and see how things go

ok - i recreated a larger group ~8k looking to remove all except using replace members ~250. in the first run and this one i had a few unresolvable subjects.

should this be a bug request?

you mean if you have unresolvables it should be more clear in notifiying you or do something else?
Justin Robinson 3 hours ago
Yeah, it doesn’t really say that because three were bad that the batch was thrown out

And I thought regular adds (not replace) will add all users and just not those that were not resolvable. Seems like if that’s the case the replace should work similarly

The thought is, if you are adding, and some are bad, no harm no foul. But if you are replacing, its a little more important that the list be right since you might make an error. Removing people and expecting it to be replaced, but its not, could be a problem. Know what I mean?

I see. I haven’t seen anything that really indicates that behavior.

So if that’s expected then I do think some additional messaging would be helpful
