Description Oliver Falk 2020-04-30 12:11:16 UTC
Description of problem:
sssd keeps logging the following message at debug level 'SSSDBG_MINOR_FAILURE':
    (Mon Apr 20 15:11:02 2020) [sssd[nss]] [calc_flat_name] (0x0080): Flat name requested but domain has noflat name set, falling back to domain name


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): n/a


How reproducible:
In most cases with sssd connected to AD.


Steps to Reproduce: n/a

Actual results:
Message is logged way too often.


Expected results:
Message is (eventually) logged once, at eg. startup and not on a regular basis.


Additional info:
* Linked upstream issue
* Linked upstream PR - not yet merged, but Sumit has basically agreed on it already
* Linked customer case

I'd be happy if we could get this fixed in RHEL7/8 + all active EUS/E4S z-streams as soon as the PR is has been merged. Please clone as necessary for these different releases.
