Description

General Settings

IT Environment Type

Allows you to specify the type of environment in which the server resides.

Use Secure LDAPS Binding

Specifies whether to use secure LDAPS binding (for LDAP directories).

Load Balancing Scheme

Select one of the options:

  • Count — Finds the mailbox store within the specified load-balancing group with the least number of existing mailboxes.

  • Custom Logic — Uses a custom load-balancing scheme that your developers create by modifying the following stored procedure in the EmpowerID Identity Warehouse:
    dbo.Custom_ExchangeMailboxObjectContainer_GetByCustomerGroupCustomLogic 

  • Quota Based — Compares the amount of storage space allocated for existing mailboxes against the value set as the maximum capacity for the mailbox store and selects the mailbox store within the load-balancing groups specified with the most unallocated space.

  • Random — Selects mailbox stores randomly.

Is Remote (Cloud Gateway Connection Required)

This setting appears for account stores with local directories, such as Active Directory, LDAP, SAP, etc. When enabled, this tells EmpowerID to use the Cloud Gateway Connection for that account store. The Cloud Gateway Connection must be installed on an on-premise machine. For installation information, please see Installing the EmpowerID Cloud Gateway Client.

Directory Cleanup Settings

Directory Clean Up Enabled

Specifies whether the SubmitAccountTermination permanent workflow should claim the account store for processing account terminations. When enabled, accounts in the account store that meet the qualifications to be marked for deletion are moved into a special OU within the external directory, disabled and finally deleted after going through an automated approval process. This process involves setting a number of system settings in EmpowerID and requires multiple approvals by designated personnel before an account is finally removed from the account store.

Report Only Mode (No Changes)

When enabled, a report of what the Directory Clean Up process would do is written to the log. The process itself is ignored and all accounts are set to Termination Pending.

OU to Move Stale Accounts

Specifies the external directory in which to move accounts marked for termination.
