Overview

With the new AD management feature, the integration with AD/LDAP Connectors and AD Accounts is centralized to manage Druva administrators efficiently by the DCP administrators. The article provides information for the Administrators on upgrading the existing AD/LDAP connectors and their associated configuration through DCP (Druva Cloud Platform).

As an Endpoints & SaaS Apps administrator, ensure that all the connectors are upgraded by DCP administrators since you won't be able to modify the associated mappings with old connectors until the upgrade.


πŸ“Note

With the Administrator management functionality, the AD/LDAP connector management setting for users is moved to the Druva Cloud Platform. For more information, see Administrator Provisioning using AD/LDAP.


Administrator Rights

The AD Management feature changes the administrator’s management capabilities by centralizing the privileges for AD integration to Druva Cloud Administrators. Below are the privileges with respect to AD/LDAP integration and associated functionality.

Upgrade old AD/LDAP connectors:

The DCP Administrators must upgrade all the old AD/LDAP Connectors to allow the inSync & DCP Administrators to modify the mapping and related configuration.

For more information on the detailed steps for the DCP Administrator to upgrade old connectors, see Upgrade Connector.


πŸ“ Note

If you have CloudCache mapping configured, it has an impact on old AD/LDAP connector integration.


Modify AD/LDAP Mappings

Once all the connectors are upgraded by the DCP administrator, you can access and modify the existing mappings linked to your new connector.
