Hello,

it is well known and documented, that the memberOf attribute can have 
inconsistent states (e.g. by manipulating it directly).
There is also a Fix-Up Task to repair that.

Question: Is there also a way to report/list all current inconsistent 
states, that the Fix-Up Task might repair? 
Hello,
No it does not check if there are differences between old/new memberof 
values. It just replace the old valueset with the new one. 

Motivation for that is to evaluate the impact of the Fix-Up Task to 
reduce/manage operational risks. 
Possible action might be to evaluate manually for all reported issues if 
they need to be cleaned up in the memberOf attribute, or added as regular 
group membership to the group  
Do you mean you would like an option to run the fixup task  to report 
invalid memberof setting but without doing any update ? Then later do the 
manual fixup ?
Hello,
yes, exactly. I would consider such an option to be a valuable 
enhancement. Maybe that's something the plugin-developers might want to 
put on their todo list for the plugin. I assume that it's implementation 
might be similar to the fix-up task, just calculate the new value and 
instead of replacing it, it needs to be compared and reported.
