1.2 Changes delivered in HP OneView version 1.01

• Active Directory integration now supports additional search contexts.

HP OneView version 1.0 was limited to a single search context which assumed that user and

groups were in the same parent container or organizational unit (OU) in Active Directory.

For example,

CN=Users,DC=example,DC=com

where users and groups are both children of the container CN=Users. In HP OneView 1.0,

that search context was specified as:

◦ CN - user naming attribute

◦ CN=Users - location in the directory where users and groups are located

◦ DC=example,DC=com - the top level domain of the directory

After installing HP OneView 1.01, if users and groups are defined in separate containers or

OUs in the directory hierarchy, you can specify up to four search contexts using a simple "+"

syntax.

For example, a search context specified as:

CN=AdminUsers,OU=Engineering+CN=NetworkingUsers,OU=NetworkTeam+CN=Groups

DC=example,DC=com

results in user and group lookups performed in three search contexts:
