Portal doesn't switch to failover LDAP server

48 Views

Hi,

We are trying to implement failover for LDAP in portal as described in the document http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/89/ed92be4e414f86ab8ac040010d5396/content.htm

Following is the scenario:

There are two Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition Active Directory servers in the same domain, one configured as first domain controller and other as the second domain controller (DC) in the domain. Both the DCs have a copy of the active directory objects.

UM Configuration is set up as follows:

Server Name: dc1HostName.domain.company.com,dc2HostName.domain.company.com

Port: 636,636

User: CN=Administrator,CN=Users,DC=domain,DC=company,DC=com

User Path: OU=Enterprise Identity,DC=domain,DC=company,DC=com

Group Path: OU=Enterprise Groups,DC=domain,DC=company,DC=com

However, if we take DC1 off the network, the portal doesn't automatically switch to DC2. Both the DCs work fine if connected individually to the portal, but the portal fails to switch in the failover scenario.

Please help...
