Hi,
We are using lsc to sync users from ldap to solr. We have configured lsc.xml
and written a plugin implementation to store data in solr.
Current Approach : We need a GUID for every record to store in solr so we
convert the DN to some sort of UUID and attach to the record and store in solr.
Problem : The GUID needs to be updated when DN changes, we can't do that as
there is chance that those GUIDs already stored in an external system.
Solution : ?
Current Approach : For AD when synchronize users, each user have DN,
memberOf with DN of the group so we simply hash the all the DNs to GUIDs and
store it. We do the same for groups.
So the solr have relationship of users and
groups in terms of GUIDs not the DNs. We also store DNs in order to refer back
to original record in source ldap at the time of update.
Problem : It works fine if we just use AD. It becomes a problem when we try to
switch to openLDAP because it does not store DN in member attribute, it stores
UID.
Solution: ?
I hope you understand the problem I am trying to solve.
Please help me to sort it out.
Thanks & Regards
