Sync-ADObject

  • Reference
Module:
ActiveDirectory

Replicates a single object between any two domain controllers that have partitions in common.

Syntax

Sync-ADObject
    [-AuthType <ADAuthType>]
    [-Credential <PSCredential>]
    [-Destination] <String>
    [-Object] <ADObject>
    [-PassThru]
    [-PasswordOnly]
    [[-Source] <String>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Sync-ADObject cmdlet replicates a single object between any two domain controllers that have partitions in common. The two domain controllers do not need to be direct replication partners. You can also use this cmdlet to populate passwords in a read-only domain controller (RODC) cache.

Examples

Example 1: Replicate an object to another location

PS C:\> Sync-ADObject -Object "CN=AccountManagers,OU=AccountDeptOU,DC=corp,DC=contoso,DC=com" -Source "corp-DC01" -Destination "corp-DC02"

This command replicates an object with the distinguished name CN=AccountManagers,OU=AccountDeptOU,DC=corp,DC=contoso,DC=com from corp-DC01 to corp-DC02.

Example 2: Pre-cache a password to a domain controller

PS C:\> Get-ADUser -Identity pattifuller | Sync-ADObject -Destination "corp-RODC01" -PasswordOnly

This command pre-caches the password of Patti Fuller to the read-only domain controller corp-RODC01 using the SAM account name of the user.

Parameters

-AuthType

Specifies the authentication method to use. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • Negotiate or 0
  • Basic or 1

The default authentication method is Negotiate.

A Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connection is required for the Basic authentication method.

Type:ADAuthType
Accepted values:Negotiate, Basic
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Credential

Specifies a user account that has permission to perform this action. The default is the current user.

Type a user name, such as User01 or Domain01\User01, or enter a PSCredential object, such as one generated by the Get-Credential cmdlet. If you type a user name, you will be prompted for a password.

This parameter is not supported by any providers installed with Windows PowerShell.

Type:PSCredential
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Destination

Specifies the identity of the Active Directory server that acts as the destination for synchronizing this data. This parameter works similarly to the Server parameter as used on the Set-ADObject cmdlet with some restrictions. It does not allow domain or forest names to be used. Valid formats for specifying the destination server are:

  • Host name
  • Host name and port
  • Fully qualified directory server name and port
  • IP address
  • IP address and port
Type:String
Aliases:Server, HostName, IPv4Address
Position:2
Default value:None
Required:True
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Object

Specifies an Active Directory object by providing one of the following property values. The identifier in parentheses is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) display name for the attribute. The acceptable values for this parameter are:

  • A distinguished name
  • A GUID (objectGUID)

The cmdlet searches the default naming context or partition to find the object. If two or more objects are found, the cmdlet returns a non-terminating error.

This parameter can also get this object through the pipeline or you can set this parameter to an object instance.

-PasswordOnly

Indicates that this cmdlet populates a read-only domain controller (RODC) password cache with the password of the account specified in the Object parameter. If specified, no data other than the password is replicated.

Type:SwitchParameter
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:False
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Source

Specifies the identity of the Active Directory server that acts as the source for synchronizing this data. This parameter works similarly to the Server parameter as used on the Set-ADObject cmdlet with some restrictions. You cannot use domain or forest names.

Valid formats for specifying the destination server are the following:

  • Host name
  • Host name and port
  • Fully qualified directory server name and port
  • IP address
  • IP address and port
