Synchronization keeps data in the system current with data
in the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory server.
You activate cron tasks to synchronize the data.
Before you begin
You must log on to the system as an administrative user. The
only directories that are supported are
IBM® Tivoli® Directory Server and
Microsoft Active Directory.
Procedure
- Open the Cron Task Setup application and select the appropriate
cron task:

| If you use Active Directory,
a directory platform or directory instance, and another directory,
only Virtual Member Manager (VMM) and IBM WebSphere® Application Server support
these directories. |
