Server Settings That Require Active Directory Replication

Topic Last Modified: 2009-03-01

This topic describes the settings for Office Communications Server that, if changed, require Active Directory replication to complete before the settings take effect. These settings include the following:

  • Settings that are changed by using the Office Communications Server 2007 R2 snap-in, as described in Table 1. For the individual properties described in the table, if you use a wizard to change one or more equivalent settings, replication also needs to complete before those settings take effect.
  • Settings changed by using WMI, as described in Table 2.
