Toolserver:Account renewal

This page documents the current account renewal procedure as of June 3, 2010.

When you're within 28 days of your account expiring, you must log in to a Solaris login server (currently, only willow). Run the following command: $ acctrenew

The script will confirm that you wish to start the renewal process and will ask for your LDAP password. It will guide you through a series of questions about licensing, e-mail, the rules, etc. Once you've finished, your account will be renewed.

Users should receive e-mail notifications regarding account renewal 28 days, 7 days, and 1 day prior to expiration.

Running acctrenew requires that you enter your LDAP password. If you didn't yet set a password, you can do so by running setpass. If you forgot your password, run resetpass. If you forgot your password and did not set an email address in LDAP, open a ticket in the TS project in JIRA.
