Synchronize AD User Groups

When you synchronize AD user groups, CC-SG retrieves the groups for the selected AD module,
compares their names with the user groups that have been imported from AD, and identifies the
matches. CC-SG will present the matches and allow you to select which ones you want to import.
This ensures that CC-SG has imported the most current AD user group information. CC-SG also
automatically synchronizes all AD modules once per day. Please refer to Set AD
Synchronization Time
, below, for additional information.

1. On the Administration menu, click Security.

2. Select the AD module whose user groups you want to synchronize with the AD server.

Figure 101 Synchronize AD User Groups

3. Click Synchronize AD User Groups.

4. A confirmation message will appear when all imported user groups in the selected module

have been successfully synchronized.

Synchronize All AD Modules

When you synchronize all AD modules, CC-SG retrieves the user groups for all configured AD
modules, compares their names with the user groups that have been imported into CC-SG, and
refreshes the CC-SG local cache. The CC-SG local cache contains all domain controllers for each
domain, all user groups for all modules, and the user information for the known AD users. If user
groups have been deleted from the AD modules, CC-SG removes them from its local cache as
well. This ensures that CC-SG has the most current AD user group information.

1. You must enter Maintenance Mode before you can synchronize all AD modules. All users

will be logged off CC-SG while it is in Maintenance Mode. On the System Maintenance
menu, click Maintenance Mode, and then click Enter Maintenance Mode.

2. In the Enter Maintenance Mode screen, type the message that will display to users who will

be logged off CC-SG, and the number of minutes that should elapse before CC-SG enters
maintenance mode in the corresponding fields, and then click OK.

3. Click OK in the confirmation dialog box.

4. A second confirmation message will display when CC-SG enters maintenance mode. Click

OK.

5. Once CC-SG is in maintenance mode, on the Administration menu, click Security.

6. Click Synchronize all AD Modules.

synchronized.
