We do a variation on the latter. Svc Widget Env[nn]
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Christopher Bodnar Sent: Tuesday, October 08, 2013 7:00 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [NTSysADM] OT: naming for service ID's Just looking for opinions here: Say you have multiple directory repositories across your development platforms (UAT, SIT, Dev, SIT, Prod, etc ...). Each with it's own directory (LDAP, AD, etc....). When you name your service accounts across the environments, do you prefer to note the environment in the name? For example do you do this for each service ID for an application: Widget_ServiceID1 So the name would be the same in each directory for that application? Or would you do something like this? Widget_ServiceID1_Dev Widget_ServiceID1_UAT Widget_ServiceID1_Prod I prefer the latter solution, and a colleague of mine vehemently objects to this. My reasoning is that when referencing the name of the account in e-mail, or discussions, it's self documenting. You immediately know what environment they are talking about. Thoughts?
