<h2>Session One: Roles, Data Storage, Parameters (Gerd)</h2>
<h3><a name="_Toc421867084">Domains</a></h3>
<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Every user in LON-CAPA is member of one domain.
A domain can be institutional and "open", for example "msu"
or "wscc" - open means that in it there can be students, authors
and other users. A domain can also be functional, for example "timss_tests"
or "smith_publishersÓ. Physically, every domain needs at least one dedicated
library server.</span></p>
<h3><a name="_Toc421867085">Userdata</a></h3>
<p>Every user in the system has one library server, which is their home server.
It stores the authoritative copy of all of their records. Internally, this
data is stored in a directory </p>

be produced by going through the roles of all users, and looking for the valid
role of being student in that course.</span></p>

<h3><a name="_Toc421867088">Custom Roles</a></h3>
<p>Course Coordinators are able to define named "Custom Roles" for
their courses within a pre-defined set of capabilities. In addition to these
custom roles, there are three standard course faculty/staff roles defined,
Instructor, Exam Proctor and TA. The instructor of record in a small class
is likely to be "Course Coordinator" and "Instructor"
during the term when the course is running, and might remain course coordinator
afterwards. Course coordinator can assign themselves new roles for their course
anytime.</p>
