AR Azure/O365 BackSync is disabled?

Is it required to have scheduled and running AR Sync Azure/O365 BackSync (GUIDs etc.) from AAD/O365 to onprem\AD objects (VAs) with AADConnect in place (AD/O365 Hybrid Mode)?

Is it supported scenario for AR by design?

IF AR BackSync Scheduled job is required THEN for which supported scenario:

1) Non Federated Domain (AADconnect is not configured)
2) Federated Domain (AADconnect and ADFS is configured)
3) Synchronized Identity Domain (AADconnect is configured)

(*) My customer got AR 7.4.3 with (3) Synchronized Identity Domain (AADconnect is configured) and AR BackSync jobs are disabled (not scheduled) at all, and it seems like there is no problem, so far.

thank you,

  • - so your customer is able to examine Azure object properties through the Active Roles UI even though no back sync is configured?

    If yes, then I am wondering how this is possible for "legacy" objects - i.e. objects that were not created through Active Roles.  I have always understood that in order for AR to be able to display Azure properties, that the Azure Object GUID VA must be populated so that AR can find the object in Azure.  Typically, it is the back synch that does this.  Or so I always understood...

  • I did not investigated deeply AR behavior against legacy AD objects with AAD/O365. 

    It is possible customer create AAD/O365 via AR provision only, or maybe and very possible, there is some issues with displaying AAD/O365 value in AR Website.

    Is is possible BackSync GUID sync is configured in ADConnect (as per Terrance comment below).

    At least the story is clear for me know.

    thank you!
