mapping User SID to UID and Group SID to GID can it be done?

Question

Hi, help Please!  Been searching and reading PDFs for a couple days now and still seem to be missing something.  Looked at  h13115-wp-emc-isilon-onefs-multiprotocol-security-untangled.pdf  h12417-wp-isilon-onefs-user-mapping.pdf and the Multiprotocol blogs in https://community.emc.com/community/products/isilon.  I'm trying to create a rule that maps a user SID and Group SID to respective UID and GID.  I see how to do it for a specific user or user between LDAP and other providers but nothing that tells me how to enable mappings like this.  http://doc.isilon.com/onefs/8.1.0/help/en-us/#ifs_c_mapping_unix_ids_to_windows_ids.html The ID mapping service creates temporary UID-to-SID and GID-to-SID mappings only if a mapping does not already exist. The UNIX SIDs that result from these mappings are never stored on disk. UIDs and GIDs have a set of predefined mappings to and from SIDs. If a UID-to-SID or GID-to-SID mapping is requested during authentication, the ID mapping service generates a temporary UNIX SID in the format S-1-22-1-  or S-1-22-2-  by applying the following rules:  For UIDs, the ID mapping service generates a UNIX SID with a domain of S-1-22-1 and a resource ID (RID) matching the UID. For example, the UNIX SID for UID 600 is S-1-22-1-600.  For GIDs, the ID mapping service generates a UNIX SID with a domain of S-1-22-2 and an RID matching the GID. For example, the UNIX SID for GID 800 is S-1-22-2-800.

T1 support says it cannot be done but the sentence before that was, 'I've never seen usermapping in Isilon'  so...  Considering manually creating a SID - UID mapping file until we get it figured out but Intelligent Isilon support is MIA on this.  Am I completely missing something?
