Hi Aarushi, Suresh

I am trying to bring back the functionalities of  Tenant Profile Service,
IAM Service , User Profile Service and Group\ Sharing Service into Custos.
Once I am going through the existing code in airavata, I came across few
unclear parts. I have created some ER diagrams and sequence diagrams to
further realize the design. See DB Layer Design Part of [1].


1.  In tenant creation flow,  tenant creation function of the
IAMAdminService creates an admin user at keycloak and enable the user, but
that user is not saved in UserProfileRespository, where all keycloak
enabled users are saved. Is this a bug ?

2. How do we get tenant admin password in above case ?

3. Does tenant requester need to be  registered with custos before
requesting a tenant.  (Otherwise how to access custos API without access
token)

3. The users in UserProfileRepository (Keycloak enabled users) are not sync
with UserRepository and they are only synced when creating a group  for a
particular domain. Is this ok ?

4. What is the relationship between domainId and tenantId ? According to
the current code tenantId is treated as domainId. See
(GroupManagerServiceHandler -> createGroup)



thanks
Isuru
