Greetings,

With the putback for the following issues in revision 1504:

  9969 client support for multiple origins desired

...the client now supports multiple origins for publisher repositories.
Shawn,
I have started work to support multiple origins per publisher for the IPS GUI and I would like to clarify few things.

On the following wireframe you can see that publisher can be removed/added or the search priority can be changed, which works pretty well with the underlying API: http://xdesign.sfbay.sun.com/projects/solaris/subprojects/package_mngt/UI_specs/ui_spec_phase4/html-mockup/42_publishers_dialog_1.htm

Clicking on the Modify publisher will open new dialog:
http://xdesign.sfbay.sun.com/projects/solaris/subprojects/package_mngt/UI_specs/ui_spec_phase4/html-mockup/43_modify_publisher1.htm

Based on the current API probably we will need to redesign a little bit this dialog:
- change the repository to origin strings
- user to be able to add origin from this dialog
- user to be able to remove origin from this dialog
- remove modify button for the repository
- add ssl fields for the publisher and also mirrors for the publisher in this dialog
- remove Active column.

Clicking on the Modify Repository (origin) is designed to gave us the following dialog:
http://xdesign.sfbay.sun.com/projects/solaris/subprojects/package_mngt/UI_specs/ui_spec_phase4/html-mockup/44_modify_repository1.htm
And again based on the current API probably the whole dialog should be gone and some parts should be in the previous dialog such as mirrors/SSL data.

My understanding was that each origin will contain information about it's mirrors and SSL cert/keys, but from the current implementation I can see that those informations are for the publisher rather then for the origin. Am I wrong? Or maybe the work on your side is ongoing and it will be like that but currently it's not.

Michal
