Hence my question:
- How is the Grouper group idIndex generated?, i.e. what is its possible range?

- Correct? Can we be sure it is not going to change to a different generation algorithm (random or larger start values, or even change format to something else than a decimal number)?

I hope so!:  because there are other groups with a gidNumber value in our directory and, in order to avoid value collisions the gidNumber attribute, it is set with an offset of 2000000:

||gidNumber: ${group.idIndex + 2000000}
It is better if you modify grouper.properties and set your minIndex there:


You can set minIndexes independently for groups, stems, attribute defs, and attribute defNames.
