Run Directory Services Connector manually to review and approve results. Running the task manually helps to ensure that the synchronization process is providing the desired results before enabling scheduled syncs.
Before you begin
Be sure to configure the
Directory Services Connector synchronization task first.
Note If you moved user accounts or groups in Active Directory from one AD domain to another, first perform a synchronization on the AD domain to which you moved the users or groups, then perform a synchronization on the users' or groups' old AD domain. This sequence avoids a temporary deactivation of those users or groups in the Control Console
For option definitions, click ? in the interface.
