Manage sync services

View sync exceptions

Navigate to Advanced > AD/LDAP Sync > Sync Service, and on the “ Sync Service” page, click Manage Sync Exception to view all the list of users, organizations and groups that are excluded from the sync service in the “Manage Sync Exception” window.

The sync exceptions list is sorted and managed according to the Exception Type.

• Deleted (EMM)—Targets that are deleted manually by the administrator
• Deleted (Source)—Targets that have been deleted from the directory server and, therefore, also deleted in Knox Manage.
• Deleted (Synchronized Group)—Target groups that have been deleted from the directory server and, therefore, also deleted in Knox Manage.
• Duplicated—A user, group, or organization with the same ID exists in Knox Manage.
• Rejected—A group or organization has been specifically excluded from synchronization in Knox Manage, because the AD/LDAP Sync check box is not checked in the group and organization information in Group or Organization.
• Inappropriate—Targets whose registered information in the directory server is not appropriate for Knox Manage’s architecture.
