Synchronise groups defined in data.yaml to LDAP
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

data.yaml defines a number of groups which provide cluster permissions in sudo or via filesystem permissions. These could also be synchronised to LDAP, so that e.g. selective access to monitoring can be granted (so that the e.g. members of the parsoid-admin group would be able to query monitoring data for Parsoid hosts).

Memberships of wmf/nda/ops are already checked. It would be rather straightforward to implement a sync of selected groups from data.yaml to LDAP. If anyone has a specific use case to have a group defined in data.yaml to be available in LDAP, please mention it on this task and we can add that.

Indeed, that will be covered by Bitu at some point.
