-------------------------------------

             Summary: While syncing with LDAP, username collisions should be handled based on configuration value
                 Key: AMBARI-18664
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMBARI-18664
             Project: Ambari
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ambari-server
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Robert Levas
            Assignee: Eugene Chekanskiy
             Fix For: 2.4.2


While syncing with LDAP, username collisions should be handled based on an LDAP sync configuration value.

The configuration options should be to indicate the following behaviors
* convert 
** convert the existing (non-LDAP user) user to an LDAP user
** This is the existing behavior
* skip
** skip or ignore the collision, leaving the existing user unchanged
** a new user record should not be created

Note: Future behavior may be to cause the sync operation to fail, but that shouldn't be handed yet.

This configuration value should be set when setting up LDAP sync properties via {{ambari-server setup-ldap}} and be enforced when processing the sync operation in methods like {{org.apache.ambari.server.controller.AmbariManagementControllerImpl#synchronizeLdapUsersAndGroups}} or {{org.apache.ambari.server.security.authorization.Users#processLdapSync}}.
