Hi All,
There is a situation in our environment, where the AD team is planning to migrate all the users from the existing domain to a new domain.
Are there any best practices to be followed while making the collector and connector modifications in Via L&G ?
In the above case, is it recommended to create new connectors and collectors or modify the existing ones.?
Bear in mind, if you modify the collector to collect from a different AD, you might see all the previously collected accounts as deleted (depends on the collector configuration).
If you have any hardcoded values in workflows which are related to the old domain, you will need to modify these values accordingly.
Hi,
It is all based on your requirements.
I will suggest that you edit your existing collector with the new AD domain details, so that you can keep your previously collected data.
Creating a new collector will result in loosing your previously collected accounts, groups, mappings...
There could be consequence within your workflows as well. Make sure to update the reference if ever you hard coded the domain name/values in some of your workflows.
Hi Jesvin Joseph,
I would recommend to modify existing collectors if you would like to keep connection between roles and groups. If you will create new one you will loose it.
In the case of connector you can create new one and don't remember to attach it to the directory/application.
