LDAP Rake tasks (CORE ONLY)

The following are LDAP-related Rake tasks.

Check

The LDAP check Rake task will test the bind_dn and password credentials (if configured) and will list a sample of LDAP users. This task is also executed as part of the gitlab:check task, but can run independently using the command below.

Omnibus Installation

sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:ldap:check

Source Installation

sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:ldap:check RAILS_ENV=production

By default, the task will return a sample of 100 LDAP users. Change this limit by passing a number to the check task:

rake gitlab:ldap:check[50]

Run a group sync (STARTER ONLY)

Introduced in GitLab Starter 12.2.

The following task will run a group sync immediately. This is valuable when you'd like to update all configured group memberships against LDAP without waiting for the next scheduled group sync to be run.

NOTE: NOTE: If you'd like to change the frequency at which a group sync is performed, adjust the cron schedule instead.

Omnibus Installation

sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:ldap:group_sync

Source Installation

bundle exec rake gitlab:ldap:group_sync

Rename a provider

If you change the LDAP server ID in gitlab.yml or gitlab.rb you will need to update all user identities or users will be unable to sign in. Input the old and new provider and this task will update all matching identities in the database.

old_provider and new_provider are derived from the prefix ldap plus the LDAP server ID from the configuration file. For example, in gitlab.yml or gitlab.rb you may see LDAP configuration like this:

main:
  label: 'LDAP'
  host: '_your_ldap_server'
  port: 389
  uid: 'sAMAccountName'
  ...

main is the LDAP server ID. Together, the unique provider is ldapmain.

Warning

to sign in. If this happens, run the task again with the incorrect provider as the old_provider and the correct provider as the new_provider.

Omnibus Installation

sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:ldap:rename_provider[old_provider,new_provider]

Source Installation

bundle exec rake gitlab:ldap:rename_provider[old_provider,new_provider] RAILS_ENV=production

Example

Consider beginning with the default server ID main (full provider ldapmain). If we change main to mycompany, the new_provider is ldapmycompany. To rename all user identities run the following command:

sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:ldap:rename_provider[ldapmain,ldapmycompany]

Example output:

100 users with provider 'ldapmain' will be updated to 'ldapmycompany'.
If the new provider is incorrect, users will be unable to sign in.
Do you want to continue (yes/no)? yes

User identities were successfully updated

Other options

If you do not specify an old_provider and new_provider you will be prompted for them:

Omnibus Installation

sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:ldap:rename_provider

Source Installation

bundle exec rake gitlab:ldap:rename_provider RAILS_ENV=production

Example output:

What is the old provider? Ex. 'ldapmain': ldapmain
What is the new provider? Ex. 'ldapcustom': ldapmycompany

This tasks also accepts the force environment variable which will skip the confirmation dialog:

sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:ldap:rename_provider[old_provider,new_provider] force=yes
