    Hi Team, As a followup on TS019773305, I am raising this enhancement IDEA.

    There are certain variables required to be set manually for Enterprise LDAP connection to be working as expected. I understand this can be setup in stateful with managedbyuser as true. But, this has to be reverted back incase of upgrade or config updates.

    So, my requirement is to enhance the system to setup these varibales during the Instance operator built as part of CR.

    LDAP_VERIFY_PASSWORDS - false(default:true) LDAP_CONTEXT_POOL - false(default:true) LDAP_REPOSITORY_ID : EXT

    Another example, as below variable is being setup for authenticating external certificate .This also will be removed if we build NOI instance .

    helmValuesNOI:

    nciserver.importNCICACerts.enabled: true

    So, we wanted to have these varibles/values permanantly added as part of CR or facility to add them when creating NOI instance. This will reduce reduce manual work from our side.

    Happy to discuss over a call
