Details About the Question

During the application server migration, we accidentally deleted a user. But we found that user's experiments are still in database. Can we re-associate or assign a new ownership for those orphaned experiments?

Answer

Orphaned experiments can not be re-associated with a new ownership in the current versions of caArray (2.3.x) and UPT (2.4.x).

UPT and caArray are two separate applications that interact only during user creation/authentication. UPT does not know which user is associated with which experiment. When a user is deleted in UPT, the caArray application interface might not be up running. Therefore, the real-time prompting for confirmation in regard to experiment might not be feasible.

A tighter Tighter integration between both applications would is to be enhanced provided in the future versions of caArray and UPT, which should prevent the creation of orphaned experiments.
