Super-administration
General principles for MNET super-administration
MNET super-administration is a feature allowing to massively play some administration commands on a set of virtualized Moodle platforms. The commands are transmitted to each nodes using a dedicated MNET function attached to the VMoodle block scope. The emitting platform should subscribe to the super-administration service, receiving nodes should publish the super-administration service.
The MNET super-administration will provide a unique process for executing any network administration command :
- Building the command : Mostly SQL orders, build manually or through some command preset.
- Choosing targets.
- Command execution and getting results.
Tip !! : command and targets are stored in session, thus it will be easy to play the same command on another target set, or keeping the target set and making a new command on it.
Super-administration main screen provides several command sets. As super-administration is a fully extensible architeture, developpers and integrators may easily add command blocks and define new command templates.
Advanced mode
The advanced mode will allow an administator to write a full SQL query to be played on all target moodles. Note that the SQL must be independant of local context to have chancs to proceed with success.
