The sync exceptions list is sorted and managed according to the Exception Type.
Exception type | Description |
---|---|
Deleted (EMM) | Targets deleted manually by the administrator |
Deleted (Source) | Targets deleted from the directory server and, therefore, also deleted in Knox Manage. |
Deleted (Synchronized Group) | Target groups deleted from the directory server and, therefore, also deleted in Knox Manage. |
Duplicated | A user, group, or organization with the same ID existing in Knox Manage. |
Rejected | A group or organization specifically excluded from synchronization in Knox Manage, because AD/LDAP Sync is not selected under Group or Organization. |
Inappropriate | Targets whose registered information in the directory server is not appropriate for Knox Manage’s architecture. |
