Change the DirSync Server and Operational Domain Controller on the Active Roles Server -
Description
How and why would you change the DirSync Server and/or Operational Domain Controller on the Active Roles Server (ARS)?

Résolution
There are two areas you can change to ensure ARS is using the closest domain controller:
- DirSync Server for each managed domain:
- ARS MMC | Configuration | Server Configuration | Managed Domains | Property of your Domain | DirSync Server tab.
- From here you can change the server that ARS talks with for all active directory updates. If the server that is currently selected is not the closest DC, you can switch it here.
- On a per-client basis you can change your Operational Domain Controller:
- To do this, from the ARS MMC | Active Directory | Domain Name.
- Right-click your domain name and choose ALL TASKS | Change Operational DC
- To restore to default settings choose "Any Available Domain Controller".
