2.9 Importing Active Directory information into the asset management database
User information managed by Active Directory services can be imported into the asset management database.
You must create and periodically execute an Asset Console script in order to update the asset management database (user management information) with the user information that is managed by Active Directory services. Asset Console provides a sample script that can be used as a reference for creating your own script. The sample script updates the following items:
-
Role names
-
Email addresses
-
Phone numbers
For details about how to update the asset management database via linkage with Active Directory, see 5.5.2 Acquiring user organization information.
