Updates from previous meeting

David
Kevin

  • File related issues with prod

    • Active Job deserialization error

      • Race conditions in jobs? Active fedora/noid

    • More work needed to resolve

    • Update to 2.5.1 to see if that fixes it

  • Controlled vocabularies

    • Creates a read block for non-related config files

    • Should be loaded into the db and code refactored to read from db

  • Workflows

    • From responses, two step is outlier rather than common

    • For now, I would suggest that campuses use the application as is

      • Too costly to refactor adminsets/etc

      • Create 1-2 admin sets per campus

      • Create a two step workflow for Sac (3 admin sets)

      • From other institutions experiences, this is a common sticking point

        • Some institutions have taken hyrax offline to provide workflow as backend operations – I like this idea to separate curatorial efforts from management/front end, but we’re not there yet

        • Running multiple apps in hydra cluster, with valk adapters possibly, ought to be a good solution to support

  • Terms not listed in prod, with term conditions like Metadata sheet

  • Form validations with dates, etc

    • Can’t save a work in progress

      • workaround is to go through all three steps and set to private
