Migrating confluence from active directory to other active directory

Application Management December 4, 2017

Our current Confluence installation is connected to an old Active Directory (LDAP). This week our Conlfuence installation will be migrated to a new server and database (this has been well described).

However, during this migration the Active Directory coupled to the Confluence instance will also be replaced with a new Active Directory instance. The usernames will NOT be the same as the  usernames in the old Active Directory instance.

How does this affect the page creators / page updators / page comments? Will the old usernames become "unknown" or is there a special tool which can be run to update these values to the new usernames which come from the new Active Directory.
