To be able to have these ids consistent PSI wide there is a small central database/API to register and lookup such IDs.
The API endpoint is `https://sysdb.psi.ch/subid/v1/config` and allows for one or more `user` parameters. It will then return the line(s) you need to add to `/etc/subuid` and `/etc/subgid`.
The API endpoint is `https://sysdb.psi.ch/subid/v1/config` and allows for one or more `user` parameters. Valid are numeric user ids (uid) or any username listed in our AD. It will then return the line(s) you need to add to `/etc/subuid` and `/etc/subgid`.
Note that the ID is now reserved for 2 years. With every lookup with the API the reservation gets renewed. After it timed out the ID range will be freed and will be used by someone else.
