Changes to portal.quakesim.org

We have removed the RDAHMM portlets since they are redundant with the versions available from www.quakesim.org. Also, the GeoFEST portlets have been temporarily removed until they are ready for usage again.  They will be made available through the "deprecated" tab.

New Issue and Bug Tracking URL; Epics and Stories

We've updated the Jira server used for issue and bug tracking. To report problems, make feature requests, etc, please go to http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu:9090.  All previous accounts and reports have been preserved.

Available issue types now include Epics and Stories.  Epics are very high level goals that are subdivided into stories. Stories are concrete collections of specific, closable subtasks. Reported bugs and issues may be converted to or replaced by stories or subtasks.

REQUIRED ACCOUNT REACTIVATION AGAIN

The portal database was again corrupted by lack of file system space.  Accounts must be reactivated again. All project data has been preserved, so please use your previous portal account user name.  To reactivate your account, do the following steps:

1. In the "login" area of the portal, click the link Create new account.
2. Provide your original username.  You do not need to reuse your original password.  You must provide a valid email address.
3. Follow the link in the confirmation email to reactivate your account.  The subject line will be "Portal Password".

If you have any problems with the above steps, please contact the portal administrators through the QuakeSim Jira ticketing system.  Click the Create issue link in the upper right.  You can post anonymously but please leave contact information in your ticket.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

New Account Creation Issues Resolved

Problems with automated account creation have been fixed by a server restart. 

QuakeSim Jira

We have started using Jira to track tasks and bugs.  See http://grids.ucs.indiana.edu:8080/jira/ for more information.  Bugs can be reported and issues can be browsed anonymously.  You can also create an account if you would like additional feedback.

Simplex and Disloc User Interface Updates

We have made several updates to Disloc and Simplex:

1. The Simplex and Disloc portal interfaces now handle linked changes in fault parameters. For example, changing a project fault's latitude and longitude values will automatically update other connected parameters such as the length and strike.
2. Simplex now includes a "quick add" feature that allows you to paste in values for the faults and project origin. This is useful if you have a legacy Simplex problem and only know the Cartesian values for the faults.
3. Simplex now allows you to change your project temperature, number of iterations, and origin after the project has been created. This will also correctly update any project faults.  Updates to observations are not currently supported, however.
