Processing Container Request

To have more detailed information on a Container request which has been or can be processed, consider the following information:

The Request Details section shows:

• the date of placing the request;
• the current status of the request, i. e. whether it has already been processed or not;

The information about the user who requested the Container is displayed in the Owner Details section:

• the user's name and email.
• the IP address of the computer used to place the request;

The Container Configuration section contains:

• the Container ID (displayed if entered when the request was placed by the user or assigned by the Node administrator);
• the Container hostname (displayed if entered by the user when requesting the Container or by the Node administrator when processing the request);
• the Container sample the requested Container will be or has been based on;

In the Description section you may read the comments the user has left for you, if any.

If you are checking a request you have not yet processed and going to create the requested Container, click the New Container button; otherwise, click Reject Request . The rejected request is deleted from the requests list. If you decided to create the requested Container, the following steps will be those described in the Creating New Container chapter .

The Reopen Request option allows you to further manage the accepted requests, which may be needed when:

• You have started creating the requested Container and the process hung;
• You have handed the created Container over to another user (by means of the Security Manager ). In this case you will need this request to stop being misleadingly displayed in the list of Container requests related to the former user. To this effect, reject the request after reopening it, which will eliminate the invalid relation between the user and the Container. The created Container will be left intact.
• Errors during the creation of the Container rendered the Container non-functional. To create the Container anew, the corresponding request has also to be rejected after reopening.
