Importing users from AD groups

[DCIM_Support]

Hi,

we have imported users from an active directory group. We see the users in DCO  with the rights that the user group has defined in DCO.

But we have been testing what happen if we eliminate some user from the AD group, and we see that the user still belongs to the same user group in DCO. Also if we add a new user in the AD group, we do not see the new user in DCO. We have tried to reboot DCO server and the users in DCO do not change.

Do we have to wait more time to the synchronization between DCO and AD?

Hi Javier,

When integrated with an authentication sever (such as AD server) the user and group authentication would be synchronized in DCO within/latest one hour time. Synchronization is running in background all the time.

In case a new user added in AD server as the group member, then the user would be in the corresponding group in DCO within the above mentioned synchronization time, and/or if this new user logs in (to DCO).

In case a remote (from DCO point of view) user being removed from the AD server, then the user will not be able to login to DCO.  And due to KPIs, by design this user will not be removed from DCO automatically, but you (with admin rights) have the option to manually remove/delete this user if/when you wish.

Kind regards

Hi Jeff,

But, what happens if a remote user is still in the AD but changes  to another group?

Hi Javier,

If the group is undefined in DCO, then the user may be able to login without having access to anything.

Kind regards
