Sailaja Polavarapu commented on RANGER-3973:
--------------------------------------------

If your LDAP doesn't have modifyTimestamp, then the effective ldap search just 
ignores that property and it is in effect disabling incremental sync. Are you 
noticing some error with the current implementation?

For example, most of the Active Directories don't have modifyTimestamp 
attribute. In this case when "ranger.usersync.ldap.deltasync" is set to true, 
even though the ldap search filter includes "modifyTimestamp", AD just ignores 
while sending the results.

> LDAP incremental search not always available

> In certain situations the LDAP incremental user/groups search is not 
> available. There is a feature already to disable incremental loads. This is a 
> request to add a feature to disable using the delta fields for lookup. Our 
> LDAP does not have modifyTimestamp field.
> When the flag ranger.usersync.ldap.deltasync is set ldap search should not 
> use properties 
> uSNChanged and modifyTimestamp (they are not needed).
