What are Active Directory Users?
Active Directory Users, are users defined in a Microsoft Active Directory forest. Each user has a number of attributes, like Display Name and Primary Group but also administrative properties that indicate when the user last did a logon or if the user has been locked out due to too many bad password attempts.
Active Directory Users monitoring
This package is designed to run a console command to capture information from Microsoft Active Directory servers to extract users that might require attention. This package may be used to determine:
- Newly created users that are not expected
- Users that have not logged on recently where the account might be removed
- Users that have been disabled
- Users that are locked out due to exceeding a bad password attempt threshold
The output of the console command is then passed back to ServicePilot and presented as indicators that can then have threshold policies applied.
