Hi Lucie,

short answer: renaming works ok if the appropriate connector works in
appropriate way :-)

Long answer: you've just hit the original AD connector restriction
(can't speak of Googleapps).

In general, it makes sense to change the login name as well as "DN" for
example.
I have multiple resource configurations where icfs:name (DN) gets
renamed after user changes his/her family name, and user's login changes
as well.

The original OpenICF AD connector can't update sAMAccountName. We have
fixed this (among other things), because our customers need to change
login name when user is renamed. Please just stay tuned, we're updating
our wiki and we will also post links here to updated AD connector.

Regards,
Ivan
