Error description

  • You can perform administrative tasks for group membership
synchronization by using the syncGroupMembersForGroups and
syncGroupMembersForAllGroups administrative scripts.

When federated repositories is configured as the WebSphere user
registry, the scripts assume that LDAP directories that are
associated with federated repositories return identical user and
group member distinguished names (DNs) when referring to the
same user. However, specific LDAP directories deviate from this
behavior by returning group member DNs in a letter case that is
different from the one that was returned as result of an LDAP
user search.

Because IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) compares group member
and user DNs when it synchronizes group memberships, mismatches
occur and cause group memberships to be omitted.
