All nodes in cluster share the same LDAP configuration - effectively they use the same ldap server(s).
I have 3 ldap servers, they are synchronized, so it does not matter which one is used by which pmg node, but... of course I would like every node use the "closest" ldap server. Is it possible? Can I set different ldap user/group source for every node?
 
no that's currently not possible directly. maybe what you could do is use a dns name and configure that differently for the different pmg hosts? ofc if you sync from servers that contain different data you then get different results, but i guess that is obvious
 
It was obvious! I simply used the same domain name and made sure it resolved differently on each node. :-)
Important: As I use LDAPS - it was essential to use correct ssl certificates (covering the same dns name on each ldap server clone).
