[ovirt-users] Active Directory (LDAP) user auth is slow

[Will Dennis]

In the RHEV Admin Guide that Martin mentioned, it says:

"Log in to the Administration Portal, and remove all users and groups related to the old profile. Users defined in the removed domain will no longer be able to authenticate with the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager. The entries for the affected users will remain defined in the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager until they are explicitly removed from the Administration Portal.”

I have some VMs running under some AD domain users; if I remove the users from the system as above, will I need to remove them from the VM permissions, or is that cleaned up as well? And I guess I’ll need to manually re-add the perms back after the new directory config is in place? Please advise.

Thanks,
Will

I have other OSS software that utilizes AD auth, and there is no such lag when processing logins, so I’m guessing it’s a problem with the oVirt implementation… Any way to debug why the auth process is taking so long?

This is an old, unmaintained component. You should use the new aaa-ldap one.
Search the list archives for "aaa-ldap" and/or read the README file in the
sources [1]. Best,

[1] https://gerrit.ovirt.org/gitweb?p=ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-ldap.git;a=blob;f=README

​You could also take a look at RHEV 3.6 Administration Guide, chapter 13 Users and Roles [2]
where you can find detailed steps for common configurations.
