The Shibboleth Identity Provider (IdP) test environment (idp-test.its.hawaii.edu) was upgraded from version 4.2.x to 5.1.x on Thursday 2024-06-27 @ 09:00.

  • This is a major upgrade, built from the ground up with essentially new infrastructure.

  • The primary goal for this upgrade is backwards compatibility with the previous 4.2 deployment.

  • If you use our IdP for SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) services, we highly encourage you to test against the upgraded IdP test environment.

  • The IdP production environment will be upgraded Sunday, 2024-08-18, 6:00-6:30 AM

A Shibboleth Identity Provider (IdP) test environment (idp-future-test.its.hawaii.edu) has been deployed to test the upgrade from v4.2 to v5.1

  • This is a major upgrade, built from the ground up with essentially new infrastructure.

  • The primary goal for this upgrade was backwards compatibility with the previous 4.2 deployment.

  • If you use our IdP for SAML Single Sign-On (SSO) services, we highly encourage you to test against the upgraded IdP test environment if feasible.

    • Generally that should entail changing from idp-test.its.hawaii.edu to idp-future-test.its.hawaii.edu in your Service Provider SSO configs.

  • On 2024-06-27, idp-future-test.its.hawaii.edu will become the new idp-test.its.hawaii.edu
