The pithy ruminations from Christof Schmitt on 
[Re: [gpfsug-discuss] Question concerning integration of CES with AD 
authentication system] were:
=> 

Following up on an old, old post...

=> > Basically Samba ignores the separate GID field in RFC2307bis, so one
=> > imagines the options for changing the LDAP attributes are none
=> > existent.
=>  
=> mmuserauth now has an option to use either the gid from the actual primary
=> group or the gid defined for the user. See:
=>  
=> https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/STXKQY_5.0.0/
=> com.ibm.spectrum.scale.v5r00.doc/bl1adm_mmuserauth.htm
=>  
=> --unixmap-domains unixDomainMap
=> [...]
=>     win: Specifies the system to read the primary group set as Windows
=> primary group of a user on the Active Directory.
=>      unix: Specifies the system to read the primary group as set in "UNIX
=> attributes" of a user on the Active Directory.  
=>     For example,
=>      --unixmap-domains "MYDOMAIN1(20000-50000:unix);MYDOMAIN2
=> (100000-200000:win)"

I see this is refering to UNIX attributes within AD, but I'm curious about 
mapping to attributes in LDAP.

=> This gets mapped to 'idmap config ... : unix_primary_group' in the
=> internal config.

Does that correspond to setting the smb.conf parameter
        
        unix_primary_group = yes




Specifically, under Spectrum Scale 5.0.2, if I run:

        mmuserauth service create --data-access-method file --ldapmap-domains 
"DOMAIN(type=stand-alone:ldap_srv=ldapserver:range=1001-65535:usr_dn=ou=People,dc=DC,dc=TLD:grp_dn=ou=Group,dc=DC,dc=TLD)"
 --type ad

(some args removed in this example), will that map the user's primary group to

        the primaryGroupID supplied by AD
  or
        the primaryGroupID LDAP field
  or
        the gidNumber LDAP field

or something else?

Thanks,

Mark
