RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Whiteboard:
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 22:22:32 UTC

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.
