Impact
======
Roles and users can not be synced to Administrator domain.

Workaround
==========
Eliminate multiple search filters. If possible, use only one Search filter by combining the search filters into one.

- When all your search filters use the same base DN:
e.g.
instead of: (&(objectclass=group)(cn=a*)) and (&(objectclass=group)(cn=b*))
use: (&(objectclass=group)(|(cn=a*)(cn=b*))).

- When some of search filters use different base DN, then try to combine all thes into one, and use a base DN that covers all of thse.
e.g:
instead of:
    dc=hr,dc=acme,dc=com          (objectclass=group)
    dc=engg,dc=acme,dc=com   (objectclass=group)
use
    dc=acme,dc=com                     (objectclass=group)

Cause
======
An known issue when multiple search filters are used for LDAP configuration.
