Description Lucy Bopf 2017-03-01 01:55:57 UTC 
Previously when integrating the Manager with an LDAP server using the ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-ldap-setup tool, the root of the LDAP tree (base DN) was selected automatically based on the LDAP server defaults. However, sometimes the defaults are incorrect for Manager integrations, and administrators are required to edit configuration files manually after the setup job completes.

Now the ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-ldap-setup tool offers to override the default base DN retrieved from LDAP server, so manual changes are no longer necessary.

Update the instructions in the Admin guide with the new question during setup.
