Configuring ARS using Mgt Shell to Manage Hybrid AD Objects

Configuring Active Roles to manage Hybrid AD using Management Shell

Active Roles Management Shell enables you to perform the following configuration tasks to manage Hybrid AD:

Add an Azure AD tenant using Mgt Shell

Use the Active Roles Management Shell to add an Azure AD tenant. To do so, run the New-QADAzureConfigObject cmdlet on the Management Shell interface.

Description

New-QADAzureConfigObject lets you add an Azure AD tenant to Active Directory.

Usage Recommendations

Use New-QADAzureConfigObject to add an Azure AD tenant using the tenant ID provided by Microsoft for the default tenant (created at the time of the Microsoft Azure subscription).

Syntax
New-QADAzureConfigObject -type 'AzureTenant' -name 'Azuretenantname' -AzureTenantId 'AzureTenantGUID' -AzureTenantDescription 'AzureTenantDescription' -AzureAdminUserID 'AzureGlobalAdminUserID' -AzureAdminPassword 'AzureGlobalIDPassword' -AzureADTenantType 'AzureTenantType'

Example: Creating a new Azure AD tenant with a local user

To create a new Azure AD tenant with a locally logged on user

  1. Connect to any available domain controller with the credentials of your local user.

  2. Create a new Azure AD tenant with the following New-QADAzureConfigObject cmdlet:

    C:\PS> New-QADAzureConfigObject -type 'AzureTenant' -name 'CompanyAzuretenant' -AzureTenantId 'CompanyAzureTenantID' -AzureTenantDescription 'Azure tenant for Company' -AzureAdminUserID 'AzureAdminUser1' -AzureAdminPassword 'AzureAdminPassword1’ -AzureADTenantType 'AzureTenantType'
Example: Creating a new Azure AD tenant with a specific user and then disconnecting

To create a new Azure AD tenant with a specific user and then disconnect

  1. Connect to any available domain controller:

Active Roles Configuration steps

Active Roles Configuration steps to manage Hybrid AD objects

To configure Active Roles to manage Hybrid AD objects, perform the following tasks:

  1. Create an Azure AD tenant.
  2. Create the Azure AD application.
  3. Provide the administrator consent for the Azure AD application.
  4. Enforce the Built-in Policy - Azure - Default Rules to Generate Properties Policy Object to the on-premises Active Directory containers, which are synchronized to Azure AD.

NOTE:

  • After an upgrade the edsvaAzureOffice365Enabled is not available for viewing or editing from Organizational Unit | Advanced Properties or through the management shell command-let, however the organizational unit container continues to be an Azure enabled container as the azure policy is already applied.

For more information on Azure custom policies, see Changes to Azure O365 Policies in Active Roles after 7.4.1.
