QPPM functionality when administration server is down

Hi,

 

We are looking to deploy QPM as one of the service in our AD forest to meet the password complexity requirements. Question is, assuming if the server running QPM administration site is down, what would happen to the passwords reset during that period? Would the DCs hold like a cache of the copy of the policy or for each reset the domain controller makes a connection to one of the QPM server to validate the new password?

  • Cheers. I think I get the gist! Let me rephrase my question.

    We intend to use only the QPPM but not the other modules that comes with it. We will be installing the agents on all the domain controllers. There will be a high availablity configured for QPM but assuming the QPM is down for odd reason, would the password changes on the domain controller still happen using the password policies defined by Quest?
