Description

The concept of server admins was introduced in Chef server 12.4. Are there any plans to support backup and restoration of server admins in this gem? Given that the pivotal user can be backed up and restored, I would expect server admins to get a similar treatment.

Research direction

Start by tracing how this gem currently backs up and restores the pivotal user, then compare that flow with the Chef Server 12.4 server-admin concept. Determine the repository entry points and validation needed for chef-server-admins; done means server admins are backed up and restored consistently with the existing pivotal-user support.
