The software doesn't make any such assumptions or prescriptions.
It uses the systems you configure it to use. If those are what you
consider "test" or "production" then that's what it uses (after a
restart, required for any changes to property fiels).

But of course you have those "catty LDAP logs" you mentioned earlier
on each of your LDAP servers to verify where the LDAP connection is
going. So no guesswork involved, and nothing the software devlopers or
the larger community can help you with.
