Fixed In Version: sssd-1.9.1-1.el6
Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Cause: Active Directory uses a nonstandard format when a large group that doesn't fit into a single "page" is returned. By default, the single page size was 1500 members, if the response exceeded the page size, the range extension is used Consequence: If a group was stored on an Active Directory server which contained more than 1500 members, the response from AD would contain the proprietary format which SSSD wouldn't be able to parse. Change: The SSSD was improved so that it is able to parse the range the extension. Result: The SSSD is able to process groups with more than 1500 group members coming from the Active Directory.

Description Dmitri Pal 2011-12-15 17:22:32 EST
Similar to paging Active Directory use the range sub-attribute to split large multi-valued attribute lists ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa367017%28v=vs.85%29.aspx).

Since this affects groups with a large number of members SSSD should support range retrievals.
