Profile Synchronization configuration options

Use these settings to control how Discovery Accelerator synchronizes employee profiles with the corresponding Active Directory or Domino directory accounts.

Default Domino domain when creating profiles

Specifies a domain to add to a user name automatically when synchronizing employees with Domino accounts.

Default Domino server when browsing for users

Specifies the name of the default Domino LDAP server to use when you browse for new users to add to your Discovery Accelerator system.

Force users to use the default Domino server when browsing for users

Stops you from choosing any Domino LDAP server other than the default server when you browse for new users to your Discovery Accelerator system. By default, Discovery Accelerator lets you nominate any Domino server.

Number of synchronization threads

Specifies the number of threads that Discovery Accelerator employs when it synchronizes employee profiles with the corresponding Active Directory or Domino directory accounts. Enter a value in the range 1 through 5, where the default is 1.

Remove addresses that do not exist in Domino or Active Directory

Specifies whether Discovery Accelerator deletes the email addresses in an employee profile before it synchronizes the profile with Active Directory or a Domino directory. By default, Discovery Accelerator does not delete the addresses. This is because you may still want to perform searches that use old email addresses, or you may have entered some additional email addresses manually.

Discovery Accelerator does not delete the email addresses in the profile if synchronization fails for any reason.

Synchronization interval (hours)

Specifies the frequency in hours with which Discovery Accelerator synchronizes employee profiles with the corresponding Active Directory or Domino directory accounts. Enter a value in the range 1 through 24. The default is every eight hours and every time the Accelerator Manager service starts.

Synchronize profiles

Specifies whether Discovery Accelerator should attempt to synchronize employees and groups with the corresponding Active Directory or Domino directory accounts. The default is to do so.

When service starts wait before synchronizing (minutes)

Specifies the number of minutes to wait after the Accelerator Manager service starts before synchronizing employees and groups with Active Directory or a Domino directory. Enter a value in the range 0 through 720. By default, the service does not wait before synchronizing.
