Editing Active Directory settings

You can edit the BMC settings for Active Directory (AD) on individual servers, or on multiple servers simultaneously. You can also disable AD for all selected servers.

1. Browse to the UCP system where you want to edit the AD settings for one or more servers, and then click Compute.
2. Select the servers, and then click the Edit BMC Settings icon.
3. From the Select BMC setting to change list, select AD settings.
   The Selected Servers table lists the current AD settings for each server.

   Note: Retrieving Active Directory server information is a time-intensive operation, particularly if you select a large number of servers. If it seems to be taking too much time, try the operation with a fewer number of servers.
