analytics-wmde group addition for Lucas Werkmeister
Closed, ResolvedPublicRequest

Description

Username: lucaswerkmeister-wmde
Full name: Lucas Werkmeister
Public key: P6884 (originally generated for T190415, also used for T208518)
Reason: With @Addshore on vacation, it would be useful to have one more person at WMDE who can test and deploy changes to the analytics wmde scripts, for example for tasks like T216835/T218901/T218903.

I’m not sure what group I need to work with the analytics wmde scripts – analytics-wmde sounds like the obvious candidate, but as far as I can tell all the current WMDE employees with some analytics access have either both analytics-wmde and analytics-privatedata-users, or only analytics-privatedata-users, so perhaps analytics-wmde alone doesn’t make sense for some reason?

As the Engineering Manager of @Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE I totally approve this request on my side and think it's super important for us as a team to not lose that while @Addshore is away.

I believe analytics-wmde is enough (as it gives you sudo on the analytics wmde users, but should be double checked if one can actually SSH into the machines with this.

RobH renamed this task from Requesting access to analytics machines for Lucas Werkmeister to analytics-wmde group addition for Lucas Werkmeister.Apr 4 2019, 3:49 PM
RobH triaged this task as Medium priority.
RobH updated the task description. (Show Details)
RobH added subscribers: Nuria, RobH.

The new policies for shell access have all group additions approved by their service owners. It is my understanding that @Nuria will be approving for any analytics group additions, so turfing this to them for review.

Please comment/approve/deny and if you'd like me to prepare the patchset (I'm on clinic duty) just assign back to me. Thanks!

PS: Please note the user is already a shell user, so adding them to the single group is pretty simple.

@Nuria can you please take action? this would help a lot.
