 First of all, you need to download the connector from Connid (e.g. [[http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/tirasa/connid/bundles/net.tirasa.connid.bundles.ad/1.3.4/net.tirasa.connid.bundles.ad-1.3.4.jar| Connid AD bundle 1.3.4 jar file]]). First of all, you need to download the connector from Connid (e.g. [[http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/tirasa/connid/bundles/net.tirasa.connid.bundles.ad/1.3.4/net.tirasa.connid.bundles.ad-1.3.4.jar| Connid AD bundle 1.3.4 jar file]]).

If you do not want to manage some account, it is advised not to include them in the Root suffixes.

 +===== ldapGroups not returned =====
 +
 +If you are running on a Windows server, the 'ldapGroups' in 'Specified attributes to be returned' has the wrong value 'ldapGroups\r' (this is only visible in Audit). The solution is to remove the value in 'Specified attributes to be returned' and write it again manually.

 +===== LdapErr: DSID-0C0907C5 =====
 +If you see this error when reconciliating AD groups:
 +<code>org.identityconnectors.framework.common.exceptions.ConnectorException: javax.naming.OperationNotSupportedException: [LDAP: error code 12 - 00000057: LdapErr: DSID-0C0907C5, comment: Error processing control, data 0, v1db1]; remaining name 'OU=BohemiaEnergy,DC=bohemiaenergy,DC=local'</code>
 +
 +the likely cause is that some groups have many members. AD has a property MaxPageSize which is probably set to lower than necessary (default is 1000). Increasing the value to an arbitrary large number (30000) helped in our case but only AD admin can change this.
 +
 +===== Failover =====
 +
 +The configuration property Failover is used when the primary server (configured in the Server hostname) is unavailable. Please note that this property is not used in the case that the primary server is accessible on the given port, but there is some other problem with the communication (e.g. the credentials are incorrect).
 +
 +The value of this property must be a proper URL, e.g. ''<nowiki>ldaps://some.hostname:636</nowiki>''.
