 Hi, we are planing to move from LDAP to AD user directory, but there is one difference.

Now user IDs are stored (Jazz and LDAP) in lower case and in Active Directory the user ID are stored in upper case, so is this a problem if we move from LDAP to AD?

Regarding to this https://jazz.net/forum/questions/84934/rtc-user-id-case-sensitive-issue it would work if we switch ON case insensitive propertyin all applications? Is this true?

Using Jazz 6.0 with WAS.

You need to switch case sensitivity off. Then it should work. Another approach is changing the user ID's. See https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/10/12/changing-the-jazz-user-id-using-the-rtc-plain-java-client-libraries/ . You should definitely test this in a test environment and have a backup before you do this in production.
