Description tachoi 2017-07-04 07:04:25 UTC
Description of problem:
Was trying to find related document but it was not successful.
One of customers is trying to configure LDAP Authentication in multiregion architecture 

- CloudForms 4.5
- Mutiregion environments with single LDAP service source.
- DB replication is enabled to Global region from 3 remote regions as usual.

1. If customer enables ldap login from remote region as well as global region 
- users/miq-groups table are replicated to global region like other tables.
- when customer try to login global ui with ldap authentication, they can't login
- In the log, LDAP authentication is successful but UI is just saying incorrect id/passwd not go to next page
- Found that same user is already existing in vmdb users table with different id(already replicated from remote-region)

2. Customer enabled ldap login from remote reqion and global region but EXCLUDING users/miq_groups table from replication.
- users/miq-groups table are NOT replicated to global region
- when customer try to login global ui with ldap authentication, they can login without issue.
- However, customer can't see tag filtered info for each user, which applied in regional region.
