Chapter 19. Syncing LDAP groups

Sync LDAP groups with OpenShift Container Platform so you can manage user membership and permissions using groups stored in your LDAP directory.

As an administrator, you can use groups to manage users, change their permissions, and enhance collaboration. Your organization may have already created user groups and stored them in an LDAP server. OpenShift Container Platform can sync those LDAP records with internal OpenShift Container Platform records, enabling you to manage your groups in one place. OpenShift Container Platform currently supports group sync with LDAP servers using three common schemas for defining group membership: RFC 2307, Active Directory, and augmented Active Directory.

For more information on configuring LDAP, see "Configuring an LDAP identity provider".

Note

You must have cluster-admin privileges to sync groups.

19.1. About configuring LDAP sync
Copia collegamento

Review how LDAP group sync works and what the sync configuration file contains so you can configure group sync for your LDAP schema.

Before you can run LDAP sync, you need a sync configuration file. This file contains the following LDAP client configuration details:

  • Configuration for connecting to your LDAP server.
  • Sync configuration options that are dependent on the schema used in your LDAP server.
  • An administrator-defined list of name mappings that maps OpenShift Container Platform group names to groups in your LDAP server.

The format of the configuration file depends upon the schema you are using:

  • RFC 2307
  • Active Directory
  • augmented Active Directory.

19.1.1. LDAP client configuration
Copia collegamento

The LDAP client configuration section of the configuration defines the connections to your LDAP server. The following example shows the LDAP client configuration fields: 

url: ldap://10.0.0.0:389
bindDN: cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com
bindPassword: <password>
insecure: false
ca: my-ldap-ca-bundle.crt
  • The url field shows the connection protocol, IP address of the LDAP server hosting your database, and the port to connect to, formatted as scheme://host:port.
  • The bindDN field shows an optional distinguished name (DN) to use as the Bind DN. OpenShift Container Platform uses this if elevated privilege is required to retrieve entries for the sync operation.
  • The bindPassword field shows an optional password to use to bind. OpenShift Container Platform uses this if elevated privilege is necessary to retrieve entries for the sync operation. This value may also be provided in an environment variable, external file, or encrypted file.
  • The insecure field controls whether the LDAP connection uses TLS. When set to false, ldaps:// URLs connect to the server using TLS, and ldap:// URLs are upgraded to TLS. When set to true, no TLS connection is made to the server, and you cannot use ldaps:// URL schemes.
  • The ca field shows the certificate bundle to use for validating server certificates for the configured URL. If empty, OpenShift Container Platform uses system-trusted roots. This only applies if insecure is set to false.

19.1.2. LDAP query definition
Copia collegamento

Sync configurations consist of LDAP query definitions for the entries that are required for synchronization. The specific definition of an LDAP query depends on the schema used to store membership information in the LDAP server. The following example shows the LDAP query definition fields: 

baseDN: ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
scope: sub
derefAliases: never
timeout: 0
filter: (objectClass=person)
pageSize: 0
  • The baseDN field contains the distinguished name (DN) of the branch of the directory where all searches start from. It is required that you specify the top of your directory tree, but you can also specify a subtree in the directory.
  • The scope field shows the search scope. Valid values are base, one, and sub. If you omit this field, the default is sub. For descriptions of each value, see Table 1, LDAP search scope options.
  • The derefAliases field shows the behavior of the search with respect to aliases in the LDAP tree. Valid values are never, search, base, or always. If this is left undefined, then the default is to always dereference aliases. Descriptions of the dereferencing behaviors are in Table 2, LDAP dereferencing behaviors.
  • The timeout field shows the time limit allowed for the search by the client, in seconds. A value of 0 imposes no client-side limit.
  • The filter field contains a valid LDAP search filter. If this is left undefined, then the default is (objectClass=*).
  • The pageSize field shows the maximum number of LDAP entries the server returns per page. If set to 0, no page size limit applies. Set this field when a query returns more entries than the client or server allow by default.

LDAP search scopeDescription

base

Only consider the object specified by the base DN given for the query.

one

Consider all of the objects on the same level in the tree as the base DN for the query.

sub

Consider the entire subtree rooted at the base DN given for the query.

Expand
Dereferencing behaviorDescription

never

Never dereference any aliases found in the LDAP tree.

search

Only dereference aliases found while searching.

base

Only dereference aliases while finding the base object.

always

Always dereference all aliases found in the LDAP tree.

19.1.3. User-defined name mapping
Copia collegamento

A user-defined name mapping explicitly maps the names of OpenShift Container Platform groups to unique identifiers that find groups on your LDAP server. The mapping uses normal YAML syntax. A user-defined mapping can contain an entry for every group in your LDAP server or only a subset of those groups. If there are groups on the LDAP server that do not have a user-defined name mapping, the default behavior during sync is to use the attribute specified as the name of the OpenShift Container Platform group.

The following example shows a user-defined name mapping: 

groupUIDNameMapping:
  "cn=group1,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com": firstgroup
  "cn=group2,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com": secondgroup
  "cn=group3,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com": thirdgroup

19.1.4. About the RFC 2307 configuration file
Copia collegamento

Review the RFC 2307 LDAP sync configuration file so you can define user and group queries and the attributes used in OpenShift Container Platform group records.

The RFC 2307 schema requires you to provide an LDAP query definition for both user and group entries, as well as the attributes with which to represent them in the internal OpenShift Container Platform records.

For clarity, the group you create in OpenShift Container Platform should use attributes other than the distinguished name whenever possible for user-facing or administrator-facing fields. For example, identify the users of an OpenShift Container Platform group by their e-mail, and use the name of the group as the common name. The following configuration file creates these relationships:

Note

If using user-defined name mappings, your configuration file differs. 

kind: LDAPSyncConfig
apiVersion: v1
url: ldap://LDAP_SERVICE_IP:389
insecure: false
bindDN: cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com
bindPassword:
  file: "/etc/secrets/bindPassword"
rfc2307:
    groupsQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        pageSize: 0
    groupUIDAttribute: dn
    groupNameAttributes: [ cn ]
    groupMembershipAttributes: [ member ]
    usersQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=users,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        pageSize: 0
    userUIDAttribute: dn
    userNameAttributes: [ mail ]
    tolerateMemberNotFoundErrors: false
    tolerateMemberOutOfScopeErrors: false

where:

url
Specifies the IP address and host of the LDAP server where the record of the group is stored.
insecure
Specifies whether the LDAP connection uses TLS. When set to false, ldaps:// URLs connect to the server using TLS, and ldap:// URLs are upgraded to TLS. When set to true, no TLS connection is made to the server, and you cannot use ldaps:// URL schemes.
rfc2307.groupUIDAttribute
Specifies the attribute that uniquely identifies a group on the LDAP server. You cannot specify groupsQuery filters when using DN for groupUIDAttribute. For fine-grained filtering, use an allowlist file, a denylist file, or both.
rfc2307.groupNameAttributes
Specifies the attribute to use as the name of the group.
rfc2307.groupMembershipAttributes
Specifies the attribute on the group that stores the membership information.
rfc2307.userUIDAttribute
Specifies the attribute that uniquely identifies a user on the LDAP server. You cannot specify usersQuery filters when using DN for userUIDAttribute. For fine-grained filtering, use an allowlist file, a denylist file, or both.
rfc2307.userNameAttributes
Specifies the attribute to use as the name of the user in the OpenShift Container Platform group record.

19.1.5. About the Active Directory configuration file
Copia collegamento

Review the Active Directory LDAP sync configuration file so you can define user queries and the attributes used in OpenShift Container Platform group records.

The Active Directory schema requires you to provide an LDAP query definition for user entries, as well as the attributes to represent them with in the internal OpenShift Container Platform group records.

For clarity, the group you create in OpenShift Container Platform should use attributes other than the distinguished name whenever possible for user-facing or administrator-facing fields. For example, identify the users of an OpenShift Container Platform group by their e-mail, but define the name of the group by the name of the group on the LDAP server. The following configuration file creates these relationships: 

kind: LDAPSyncConfig
apiVersion: v1
url: ldap://LDAP_SERVICE_IP:389
activeDirectory:
    usersQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=users,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        filter: (objectclass=person)
        pageSize: 0
    userNameAttributes: [ mail ]
    groupMembershipAttributes: [ memberOf ]

where:

activeDirectory.userNameAttributes
Specifies the attribute to use as the name of the user in the OpenShift Container Platform group record.
activeDirectory.groupMembershiptAttributes
Specifies the attribute on the user that stores the membership information.

19.1.6. About the augmented Active Directory configuration file
Copia collegamento

Review the augmented Active Directory LDAP sync configuration file so you can define user and group queries and the attributes used in OpenShift Container Platform group records.

The augmented Active Directory schema requires you to provide an LDAP query definition for both user entries and group entries, as well as the attributes with which to represent them in the internal OpenShift Container Platform group records.

For clarity, the group you create in OpenShift Container Platform should use attributes other than the distinguished name whenever possible for user-facing or administrator-facing fields. For example, identify the users of an OpenShift Container Platform group by their e-mail, and use the name of the group as the common name. The following configuration file creates these relationships. 

kind: LDAPSyncConfig
apiVersion: v1
url: ldap://LDAP_SERVICE_IP:389
augmentedActiveDirectory:
    groupsQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        pageSize: 0
    groupUIDAttribute: dn
    groupNameAttributes: [ cn ]
    usersQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=users,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        filter: (objectclass=person)
        pageSize: 0
    userNameAttributes: [ mail ]
    groupMembershipAttributes: [ memberOf ]

where:

augmentedActiveDirectory.groupUIDAttribute
Specifies the attribute that uniquely identifies a group on the LDAP server. You cannot specify groupsQuery filters when using DN for groupUIDAttribute. For fine-grained filtering, use an allowlist file, a denylist file, or both.
augmentedActiveDirectory.groupNameAttributes
Specifies the attribute to use as the name of the group.
augmentedActiveDirectory.userNameAttributes
Specifies the attribute to use as the name of the user in the OpenShift Container Platform group record.
augmentedActiveDirectory.groupMembershipAttributes
Specifies the attribute on the user that stores the membership information.

19.2. Running LDAP sync
Copia collegamento

Review LDAP sync types before running group sync between your LDAP server and OpenShift Container Platform. Each type defines sync direction and scope so you select the command that matches your directory layout.

After you have created a sync configuration file, you can begin to sync. OpenShift Container Platform allows administrators to perform several different sync types with the same server.

19.2.1. Syncing the LDAP server with OpenShift Container Platform
Copia collegamento

Sync all groups from your LDAP server with OpenShift Container Platform so you can mirror your complete LDAP group membership in the cluster.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named config.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Sync all groups from the LDAP server with OpenShift Container Platform by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --sync-config=config.yaml --confirm
    Note

    By default, all group synchronization operations are dry-run, so you must set the --confirm flag on the oc adm groups sync command to make changes to OpenShift Container Platform group records.

19.2.2. Syncing OpenShift Container Platform groups with the LDAP server
Copia collegamento

Sync existing OpenShift Container Platform groups with your LDAP server so you can update membership for groups that already exist in the cluster.

You can sync all groups already in OpenShift Container Platform that correspond to groups in the LDAP server specified in the configuration file.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named config.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Sync OpenShift Container Platform groups with the LDAP server by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --type=openshift --sync-config=config.yaml --confirm
    Note

    By default, all group synchronization operations are dry-run, so you must set the --confirm flag on the oc adm groups sync command to make changes to OpenShift Container Platform group records.

Sync a subset of LDAP groups with OpenShift Container Platform so you can control which groups are synchronized using allowlist files, denylist files, or both.

Note

You can use any combination of denylist files, allowlist files, or allowlist literals. Allowlist and denylist files must contain one unique group identifier per line, and you can include allowlist literals directly in the command itself. These guidelines apply to groups found on LDAP servers as well as groups already present in OpenShift Container Platform.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named config.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • To sync groups using an allowlist file, run the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --whitelist=<allowlist_file> \
                   --sync-config=config.yaml      \
                   --confirm

  • To sync groups using a denylist file, run the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --blacklist=<denylist_file> \
                   --sync-config=config.yaml      \
                   --confirm

  • To sync a single group by the unique identifier of the group, run the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync <group_unique_identifier>    \
                   --sync-config=config.yaml      \
                   --confirm

  • To sync a single group with both an allowlist and a denylist, run the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync <group_unique_identifier>  \
                   --whitelist=<allowlist_file> \
                   --blacklist=<denylist_file> \
                   --sync-config=config.yaml    \
                   --confirm

  • To sync existing OpenShift Container Platform groups using an allowlist file, run the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --type=openshift           \
                   --whitelist=<allowlist_file> \
                   --sync-config=config.yaml    \
                   --confirm
    Note

    By default, all group synchronization operations are dry-run, so you must set the --confirm flag on the oc adm groups sync command to make changes to OpenShift Container Platform group records.

19.3. Running a group pruning job
Copia collegamento

Run a group pruning job to remove LDAP-synced groups from OpenShift Container Platform when they no longer exist on your LDAP server so you can keep cluster group records aligned with your directory.

Procedure

  • Prune groups using a sync configuration file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm prune groups --sync-config=/path/to/ldap-sync-config.yaml --confirm

  • Prune groups using an allowlist file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm prune groups --whitelist=/path/to/whitelist.txt --sync-config=/path/to/ldap-sync-config.yaml --confirm

  • Prune groups using a denylist file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm prune groups --blacklist=/path/to/blacklist.txt --sync-config=/path/to/ldap-sync-config.yaml --confirm

19.4. Automatically syncing LDAP groups
Copia collegamento

Configure a cron job to automatically sync LDAP groups with OpenShift Container Platform so you can keep group membership up to date without running manual sync commands.

Prerequisites

  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.
  • You configured an LDAP identity provider (IDP).
  • You created an LDAP secret named ldap-secret and a config map named ca-config-map.

Procedure

  1. Create a project where the cron job runs by running the following command: 

    $ oc new-project ldap-sync

    This procedure uses a project called ldap-sync.

  2. Locate the secret and config map that you created when configuring the LDAP identity provider and copy them to this new project.

    The secret and config map exist in the openshift-config project and must be copied to the new ldap-sync project.

  3. Define a service account: 

    kind: ServiceAccount
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
  name: ldap-group-syncer
  namespace: ldap-sync

  4. Create the service account by running the following command: 

    $ oc create -f ldap-sync-service-account.yaml

  5. Define a cluster role: 

    apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRole
metadata:
  name: ldap-group-syncer
rules:
  - apiGroups:
      - user.openshift.io
    resources:
      - groups
    verbs:
      - get
      - list
      - create
      - update

  6. Create the cluster role by running the following command: 

    $ oc create -f ldap-sync-cluster-role.yaml

  7. Define a cluster role binding to bind the cluster role to the service account: 

    kind: ClusterRoleBinding
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
metadata:
  name: ldap-group-syncer
subjects:
  - kind: ServiceAccount
    name: ldap-group-syncer
    namespace: ldap-sync
roleRef:
  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
  kind: ClusterRole
  name: ldap-group-syncer

    where:

    subjects.name
    Specifies the service account created earlier in this procedure.
    roleRef.name
    Specifies the cluster role created earlier in this procedure.

  8. Create the cluster role binding by running the following command: 

    $ oc create -f ldap-sync-cluster-role-binding.yaml

  9. Define a config map that specifies the sync configuration file: 

    kind: ConfigMap
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
  name: ldap-group-syncer
  namespace: ldap-sync
data:
  sync.yaml:
    kind: LDAPSyncConfig
    apiVersion: v1

        scope: sub
        filter: "(objectClass=groupOfMembers)"
        derefAliases: never
        pageSize: 0
      groupUIDAttribute: dn
      groupNameAttributes: [ cn ]
      groupMembershipAttributes: [ member ]
      usersQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=users,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        pageSize: 0
      userUIDAttribute: dn
      userNameAttributes: [ uid ]
      tolerateMemberNotFoundErrors: false

    Specifies the baseDN for groupsQuery.
    data.sync.yaml.rfc2307.usersQuery.baseDN
    Specifies the baseDN for usersQuery.

  10. Create the config map by running the following command: 

    $ oc create -f ldap-sync-config-map.yaml

  11. Define a cron job: 

    kind: CronJob
apiVersion: batch/v1
metadata:

    where:

    spec
    Specifies the configuration settings for the cron job. See "Creating cron jobs" for more information on cron job settings.
    spec.schedule
    Specifies the schedule for the job specified in cron format. This example cron job runs every 30 minutes. Adjust the frequency as necessary, making sure to take into account how long the sync takes to run.
    spec.jobTemplate.spec.ttlSecondsAfterFinished
    Specifies how long, in seconds, to keep finished jobs. This should match the period of the job schedule in order to clean old failed jobs and prevent unnecessary alerts. For more information, see Automatic Cleanup for Finished Jobs (Kubernetes documentation).
    spec.jobTemplate.spec.template.spec.containers.command

  12. Create the cron job by running the following command: 

    $ oc create -f ldap-sync-cron-job.yaml

19.5. LDAP group sync examples
Copia collegamento

Review LDAP group sync examples so you can configure synchronization for RFC 2307, Active Directory, or augmented Active Directory schemas.

Note

These examples cover only direct group membership. Each user is a direct member of a group, and groups do not contain other groups as members. For information, see "LDAP nested membership sync".

19.5.1. Syncing groups using the RFC 2307 schema
Copia collegamento

Sync LDAP groups by using the RFC 2307 schema so you can mirror direct group membership from your LDAP server in OpenShift Container Platform.

For the RFC 2307 schema, the following examples synchronize a group named admins that has two members: Jane and Jim. The examples explain:

  • How the group and users are added to the LDAP server.
  • What the resulting group record in OpenShift Container Platform is after synchronization.
Note

These examples assume that all users are direct members of their respective groups. Specifically, no groups have other groups as members. For information on how to sync nested groups, see "LDAP nested membership sync".

In the RFC 2307 schema, users and groups exist on the LDAP server as first-class entries, and group membership is stored in attributes on the group. The following snippet of ldif defines the users and group for this schema: 

  dn: ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
  objectClass: organizationalUnit
  ou: users
  dn: cn=Jane,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
  objectClass: person
  objectClass: organizationalPerson
  objectClass: inetOrgPerson
  cn: Jane
  sn: Smith
  displayName: Jane Smith
  mail: jane.smith@example.com
  dn: cn=Jim,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
  objectClass: person
  objectClass: organizationalPerson
  objectClass: inetOrgPerson
  cn: Jim
  sn: Adams
  displayName: Jim Adams
  mail: jim.adams@example.com
  dn: ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
  objectClass: organizationalUnit
  ou: groups
  dn: cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
  objectClass: groupOfNames
  cn: admins
  owner: cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com
  description: System Administrators
  member: cn=Jane,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
  member: cn=Jim,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com

where:

dn: cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
Specifies that this group is a first-class entry in the LDAP server.
member: cn=Jane,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
Specifies that the members of a group are listed with an identifying reference as attributes on the group.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named rfc2307_config.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Sync with the rfc2307_config.yaml file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --sync-config=rfc2307_config.yaml --confirm

    After you run the sync command, the following group record is created in OpenShift Container Platform: 

    apiVersion: user.openshift.io/v1
kind: Group
metadata:
  annotations:

    where:

    metadata.annotations.openshift.io/ldap.sync-time
    Specifies the last time this OpenShift Container Platform group was synchronized with the LDAP server, in ISO 8601 format.
    metadata.annotations.openshift.io/ldap.uid
    Specifies the unique identifier for the group on the LDAP server.
    metadata.annotations.openshift.io/ldap.url

    users
    Specifies the users that are members of the group, named as specified by the sync file.

Sync LDAP groups using the RFC 2307 schema with user-defined name mappings so you can map LDAP group identifiers to OpenShift Container Platform group names.

When you sync groups with user-defined name mappings, include the mappings in the configuration file, as shown in the following rfc2307_config_user_defined.yaml example: 

kind: LDAPSyncConfig
apiVersion: v1
groupUIDNameMapping:
  "cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com": Administrators
rfc2307:
    groupsQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        pageSize: 0
    groupUIDAttribute: dn
    groupNameAttributes: [ cn ]
    groupMembershipAttributes: [ member ]
    usersQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=users,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        pageSize: 0
    userUIDAttribute: dn
    userNameAttributes: [ mail ]
    tolerateMemberNotFoundErrors: false
    tolerateMemberOutOfScopeErrors: false

where:

groupUIDNameMapping
Specifies the user-defined name mapping.
rfc2307.groupUIDAttribute
Specifies the unique identifier attribute that is used for the keys in the user-defined name mapping. You cannot specify groupsQuery filters when using DN for groupUIDAttribute. For fine-grained filtering, use an allowlist file, a denylist file, or both.
rfc2307.groupNameAttributes
Specifies the attribute to name OpenShift Container Platform groups with if their unique identifier is not in the user-defined name mapping.
rfc2307.userUIDAttribute
Specifies the attribute that uniquely identifies a user on the LDAP server. You cannot specify usersQuery filters when using DN for the userUIDAttribute parameter. For fine-grained filtering, use an allowlist file, a denylist file, or both.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named rfc2307_config_user_defined.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Sync groups using the rfc2307_config_user_defined.yaml file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --sync-config=rfc2307_config_user_defined.yaml --confirm

    After you run the sync command, the following group record is created in OpenShift Container Platform: 

    apiVersion: user.openshift.io/v1
kind: Group
metadata:
  annotations:
    openshift.io/ldap.sync-time: 2015-10-13T10:08:38-0400
    openshift.io/ldap.uid: cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
    openshift.io/ldap.url: LDAP_SERVER_IP:389
  creationTimestamp:
  name: Administrators
users:
- jane.smith@example.com
- jim.adams@example.com

    where:

    metadata.name
    Specifies the name of the group as specified by the user-defined name mapping.

19.5.3. Syncing groups by using RFC 2307 with user-defined error tolerances
Copia collegamento

Sync LDAP groups using the RFC 2307 schema with error tolerances so you can complete group synchronization when some members are missing or out of scope.

By default, if the groups being synced contain members whose entries are outside of the scope defined in the member query, the group sync fails with an error: 

Error determining LDAP group membership for "<group>": membership lookup for user "<user>" in group "<group>" failed because of "search for entry with dn="<user-dn>" would search outside of the base dn specified (dn="<base-dn>")".

This often indicates a misconfigured baseDN in the usersQuery field. However, in cases where the baseDN intentionally does not contain some of the members of the group, setting tolerateMemberOutOfScopeErrors: true allows the group sync to continue. Out of scope members are ignored.

Similarly, when the group sync process fails to locate a member for a group, it fails with errors: 

Error determining LDAP group membership for "<group>": membership lookup for user "<user>" in group "<group>" failed because of "search for entry with base dn="<user-dn>" refers to a non-existent entry".
Error determining LDAP group membership for "<group>": membership lookup for user "<user>" in group "<group>" failed because of "search for entry with base dn="<user-dn>" and filter "<filter>" did not return any results".

This often indicates a misconfigured usersQuery field. However, in cases where the group contains member entries that are known to be missing, setting tolerateMemberNotFoundErrors: true allows the group sync to continue. Missing members are ignored.

Warning

Enabling error tolerances for the LDAP group sync causes the sync process to ignore member entries that cause errors. If the LDAP group sync is not configured correctly, this could result in synced OpenShift Container Platform groups missing members.

The following example shows LDAP entries that use RFC 2307 schema with invalid group membership: rfc2307_problematic_users.ldif 

  dn: ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
  objectClass: organizationalUnit
  ou: users
  dn: cn=Jane,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com

  member: cn=Jim,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
  member: cn=INVALID,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
  member: cn=Jim,ou=OUTOFSCOPE,dc=example,dc=com

where:

member: cn=INVALID,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
Specifies a member that does not exist on the LDAP server.
member: cn=Jim,ou=OUTOFSCOPE,dc=example,dc=com
Specifies a member that may exist, but is not under the baseDN in the user query for the sync job.

To tolerate the errors in the above example, the following additions to your sync configuration file must be made: 

kind: LDAPSyncConfig
apiVersion: v1
url: ldap://LDAP_SERVICE_IP:389
rfc2307:
    groupsQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com"

        derefAliases: never
    groupUIDAttribute: dn
    groupNameAttributes: [ cn ]
    groupMembershipAttributes: [ member ]
    usersQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=users,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
    userUIDAttribute: dn
    userNameAttributes: [ mail ]
    tolerateMemberNotFoundErrors: true
    tolerateMemberOutOfScopeErrors: true

where:

rfc2307.userUIDAttribute
Specifies the attribute that uniquely identifies a user on the LDAP server. You cannot specify usersQuery filters when using DN for userUIDAttribute. For fine-grained filtering, use an allowlist file, a denylist file, or both.
rfc2307.tolerateMemberNotFoundErrors
Specifies whether the sync job tolerates groups for which some members were not found. When set to true, members whose LDAP entries are not found are ignored. The default behavior for the sync job is to fail if a member of a group is not found.
rfc2307.tolerateMemberOutOfScopeErrors
Specifies whether the sync job tolerates groups for which some members are outside the user scope given in the usersQuery baseDN. When set to true, members outside the member query scope are ignored. The default behavior for the sync job is to fail if a member of a group is out of scope.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named rfc2307_config_tolerating.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Sync with the rfc2307_config_tolerating.yaml file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --sync-config=rfc2307_config_tolerating.yaml --confirm

    OpenShift Container Platform creates the following group record as a result of the previous sync operation: 

    apiVersion: user.openshift.io/v1
kind: Group
metadata:

    where:

    users
    Specifies the users that are members of the group, as specified by the sync file. Members for which lookup encountered tolerated errors are absent.

19.5.4. Syncing groups using the Active Directory schema
Copia collegamento

You can sync LDAP groups for your OpenShift Container Platform cluster using the Active Directory schema by running oc adm groups sync with an LDAP sync configuration file. In this schema, group membership is stored in attributes on user entries, such as memberOf.

In the Active Directory schema, users exist on the LDAP server as first-class entries, and group membership is stored in attributes on the user. The following snippet of ldif defines the users and group for this schema: 

dn: ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: users

dn: cn=Jane,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson

objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: testPerson
cn: Jim
sn: Adams
displayName: Jim Adams
mail: jim.adams@example.com
memberOf: admins

where:

memberOf
Specifies that the group memberships of the user are listed as attributes on the user, and the group does not exist as an entry on the server. The memberOf attribute does not have to be a literal attribute on the user; in some LDAP servers, the attribute is created during search and returned to the client, but not committed to the database.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named active_directory_config.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Sync with the active_directory_config.yaml file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --sync-config=active_directory_config.yaml --confirm

    OpenShift Container Platform creates the following group record as a result of the previous sync operation: 

    apiVersion: user.openshift.io/v1
kind: Group

    metadata.name
    Specifies the name of the group as listed in the LDAP server.
    users
    Specifies the users that are members of the group, named as specified by the sync file.

19.5.5. Syncing groups using the augmented Active Directory schema
Copia collegamento

You can sync LDAP groups for your OpenShift Container Platform cluster using the augmented Active Directory schema by running oc adm groups sync with an LDAP sync configuration file.

In this schema, users and groups are first-class LDAP entries, and group membership is stored in attributes on user entries, such as memberOf.

In the augmented Active Directory schema, both users and groups exist in the LDAP server as first-class entries, and group membership is stored in attributes on the user. The following snippet of ldif defines the users and group for this schema: 

dn: ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: users

dn: cn=Jane,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson

where:

memberOf
Specifies that the group memberships of the user are listed as attributes on the user.
dn: cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
Specifies that the group is a first-class entry on the LDAP server.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named augmented_active_directory_config.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Sync with the augmented_active_directory_config.yaml file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync --sync-config=augmented_active_directory_config.yaml --confirm

    OpenShift Container Platform creates the following group record as a result of the previous sync operation: 

    apiVersion: user.openshift.io/v1

    metadata.annotations.openshift.io/ldap.uid
    Specifies the unique identifier for the group on the LDAP server.
    metadata.annotations.openshift.io/ldap.url
    Specifies the IP address and host of the LDAP server where the record of the group is stored.
    metadata.name
    Specifies the name of the group as specified by the sync file.
    users
    Specifies the users that are members of the group, named as specified by the sync file.

19.5.6. LDAP nested membership sync
Copia collegamento

Understand how nested LDAP group membership is flattened during sync so you can configure allowlisted sync jobs that include members of nested Active Directory groups.

Groups in OpenShift Container Platform do not nest. The LDAP server must flatten group membership before the data can be consumed. The Microsoft Active Directory Server supports this feature via the LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAIN rule, which has the OID 1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941. Furthermore, only explicitly allowlisted groups can be synced when using this matching rule.

The following example synchronizes a group named admins that has one user member, Jane, and one nested group member, otheradmins, which contains Jim.

This example explains:

  • How the group and users are added to the LDAP server.
  • What the LDAP sync configuration file looks like.
  • What the resulting group record in OpenShift Container Platform is after synchronization.

19.5.6.1. Example LDAP entries
Copia collegamento

In the augmented Active Directory schema, both users and groups exist in the LDAP server as first-class entries, and group membership is stored in attributes on the user or the group. The following ldif snippet defines the users and groups for this schema: 

dn: ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: users

dn: cn=Jane,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: testPerson

owner: cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com
description: Other System Administrators
memberOf: cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
member: cn=Jim,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com

where:

memberOf
Specifies that the memberships of the user and group are listed as attributes on the object.
dn: cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
Specifies that groups are first-class entries on the LDAP server.
member: cn=otheradmins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
Specifies that the otheradmins group is a member of the admins group.

19.5.6.2. Configuration requirements
Copia collegamento

When syncing nested groups with Active Directory, you must provide an LDAP query definition for both user entries and group entries, as well as the attributes with which to represent them in the internal OpenShift Container Platform group records. Furthermore, certain changes are required in this configuration:

  • The oc adm groups sync command requires you to explicitly allowlist groups.
  • The groupMembershipAttributes field must include "memberOf:1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941:" to comply with the LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAIN rule.
  • The groupUIDAttribute must be set to dn.

  • The groupsQuery:

    • Must not set filter.
    • Must set a valid derefAliases.
    • Should not set baseDN as that value is ignored.
    • Should not set scope as that value is ignored.

For clarity, the group you create in OpenShift Container Platform should use attributes other than the distinguished name whenever possible for user-facing or administrator-facing fields. For example, identify the users of an OpenShift Container Platform group by their e-mail, and use the name of the group as the common name.

19.5.6.3. Example sync configuration
Copia collegamento

The following configuration file creates these relationships. Save it as augmented_active_directory_config_nested.yaml: 

kind: LDAPSyncConfig
apiVersion: v1
url: ldap://LDAP_SERVICE_IP:389
augmentedActiveDirectory:
    groupsQuery:
        derefAliases: never
        pageSize: 0
    groupUIDAttribute: dn
    groupNameAttributes: [ cn ]
    usersQuery:
        baseDN: "ou=users,dc=example,dc=com"
        scope: sub
        derefAliases: never
        filter: (objectclass=person)
        pageSize: 0
    userNameAttributes: [ mail ]
    groupMembershipAttributes: [ "memberOf:1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941:" ]

where:

augmentedActiveDirectory.groupsQuery
Specifies that the groupsQuery filters cannot be specified. The groupsQuery base DN and scope values are ignored. groupsQuery must set a valid derefAliases.
augmentedActiveDirectory.groupUIDAttribute
Specifies the attribute that uniquely identifies a group on the LDAP server. It must be set to dn.
augmentedActiveDirectory.groupNameAttributes
Specifies the attribute to use as the name of the group.
augmentedActiveDirectory.userNameAttributes
Specifies the attribute to use as the username of the user in the OpenShift Container Platform group record.
augmentedActiveDirectory.groupMembershipAttributes

Specifies the attribute on the user that stores the membership information. Note the use of LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAIN.

Note

mail or sAMAccountName are preferred choices in most installations.

19.5.7. LDAP nested membership sync example
Copia collegamento

Run the nested group LDAP sync example with an allowlisted group so you can verify that members of nested Active Directory groups appear in the resulting OpenShift Container Platform group.

Prerequisites

  • An LDAP sync configuration file exists. This procedure uses an example file named augmented_active_directory_config_nested.yaml.
  • You have access to the cluster as a user with the cluster-admin role.

Procedure

  • Sync with the augmented_active_directory_config_nested.yaml file by running the following command: 

    $ oc adm groups sync \
    'cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com' \
    --sync-config=augmented_active_directory_config_nested.yaml \
    --confirm
    Note

    You must explicitly allowlist the cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com group.

    OpenShift Container Platform creates the following group record as a result of the previous sync operation: 

    apiVersion: user.openshift.io/v1
kind: Group
metadata:
  annotations:
    openshift.io/ldap.sync-time: 2015-10-13T10:08:38-0400
    openshift.io/ldap.uid: cn=admins,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com
    openshift.io/ldap.url: LDAP_SERVER_IP:389
  creationTimestamp:
  name: admins
users:
- jane.smith@example.com
- jim.adams@example.com

    where:

    metadata.annotations.openshift.io/ldap.sync-time
    Specifies the last time this OpenShift Container Platform group was synchronized with the LDAP server, in ISO 8601 format.
    metadata.annotations.openshift.io/ldap.uid
    Specifies the unique identifier for the group on the LDAP server.
    metadata.annotations.openshift.io/ldap.url
    Specifies the IP address and host of the LDAP server where the record of the group is stored.
    metadata.name
    Specifies the name of the group as specified by the sync file.
    users

    Specifies the users that are members of the group, named as specified by the sync file.

    Note

    Members of nested groups are included because the group membership is flattened by the Microsoft Active Directory Server.

19.6. LDAP sync configuration specification
Copia collegamento

Review the LDAP group sync configuration specification so you can identify required fields and schema-specific options for your sync configuration file.

The following sections describe the object specification for the configuration file. Note that the different schema types define different fields. For example, the v1.ActiveDirectoryConfig schema type has no groupsQuery field, but the v1.RFC2307Config and v1.AugmentedActiveDirectoryConfig schema types include a groupsQuery field.

Important

There is no support for binary attributes. All attribute data coming from the LDAP server must be in the UTF-8 encoded string format. For example, never use a binary attribute, such as objectGUID, as an ID attribute. You must use string attributes, such as sAMAccountName or userPrincipalName, instead.

19.6.1. v1.LDAPSyncConfig

tolerateMemberNotFoundErrors

Determines the behavior of the LDAP sync job when missing user entries are encountered. If true, an LDAP query for users that does not find any is tolerated and only an error is logged. If false, the LDAP sync job fails if a query for users does not find any. The default value is false. Misconfigured LDAP sync jobs with this flag set to true can cause group membership to be removed, so it is recommended to use this flag with caution.

boolean

tolerateMemberOutOfScopeErrors

Determines the behavior of the LDAP sync job when out-of-scope user entries are encountered. If true, an LDAP query for a user that falls outside of the base DN given for the all user query is tolerated and only an error is logged. If false, the LDAP sync job fails if a user query searches outside of the base DN specified by the all user query. Misconfigured LDAP sync jobs with this flag set to true can result in groups missing users, so it is recommended to use this flag with caution.
