Versions to which this applies: All in support versions which I believe should be TAS 4-6.
Slack user(s) or channel that we might contact (for clarification, review, etc.): Ideally this should go to the uaa team. Daniel Lynch has some context as well

Guidelines

Please include the following information in your write-up:

Who is the target user--operator, developer, other? Operator
What changed in the product, and why? Documentation is incorrect which has led to support tickets

Customers Often attempt to add multiple LDAP domains to TAS and find out this is not supported. Our docs do mention we support multiple ldap servers, however, we do not support multiple LDAP domains. Only a single LDAP forest can be supported for the entire TAS installation. If they require support for multiple domains and forests then SAML integration is the recommended solution.

Content

The line: To integrate the UAA with one or more LDAP servers:

Should be changed to To integrate the UAA with an LDAP server: There should be a sub point calling out if they require support for multiple domains and forests then SAML integration is the recommended solution.

We have created an issue in Pivotal Tracker to manage this. Unfortunately, the Pivotal Tracker project is private so you may be unable to view the contents of the story.

The labels on this github issue will be updated when the story is started.

Hi @mrosecrance , This file is in https://github.com/pivotal-cf/docs-operating-pas. With the new way the doc URLs are made, it can be quite challenging to find the right repo :)

I made the change in master, 6.0, 5.0, 4.0, 2.13, 2.11 (2.13 and 2.11 are EOGs but are in a grace period until the end of 09/30/2024)
