<div dir="ltr">UPDATE: After a Dirsync restart on Pub and Tomcat on all Subs, the LDAP sync is now using the top/primary LDAP server in the list again. This was a TAC recommendation and there was nothing in the logs indicating why it was choosing the third LDAP server in the first place. Therefore, I don't know what might trigger it again in the future. The defect Brian Meade noted maybe the closest thing to it.<div><br></div><div><a href="https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCuu55380" target="_blank" style="font-size:12.8px">https://bst.<wbr>cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/<wbr>bug/CSCuu55380</a><br><div><br></div><div>Also, I have yet to schedule an outage to test if LDAP Auth/Dirsync is failing over between the servers properly. I will update the list once that is done.</div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Aug 4, 2016 at 12:59 PM, Anthony Holloway <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:avholloway+cisco-voip@gmail.com" target="_blank">avholloway+cisco-voip@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">All,<div><br></div><div>I'm working on an issue where my CUCM 11.0 system is configured with 3 LDAP servers under LDAP Authentication AND LDAP Directory.</div><div><br></div><div>What I'm see is, for packet captures of CUCM when a login attempt is made, the CUCM server sends the BIND request to the last server in the list of three servers.
