Get-CsUserReplicatorConfiguration
Returns information about the User Replicator configuration settings currently employed in your organization. The User Replicator periodically retrieves up-to-date user account information from Active Directory and then synchronizes the new information with the current user data stored by Skype for Business Server. This cmdlet was introduced in Lync Server 2010.

[<CommonParameters>] Description
Although Skype for Business Server maintains its own database of user accounts and user account data, Skype for Business Server still relies on Active Directory as the ultimate source for user information. For example, when a new Active Directory user account is created, you must supply basic information about the user account (such as the Active Directory display name). When a user is enabled for Skype for Business Server, however, you do not need to specify a new display name for that user. That's because Skype for Business Server uses the display name already stored in Active Directory Domain Services.
Of course, user account information (including the Active Directory display name) is subject to change over time. For example, a user who gets married might change her last name and, in turn, need to change her display name as well. In order to ensure that the Skype for Business Server database and Active Directory remain in synch Skype for Business Server must periodically check in with Active Directory, retrieve the latest user account updates, and then modify its own user database accordingly. This synchronization between Active Directory and Skype for Business Server is carried out by the User Replicator.
When you install Skype for Business Server a global set of User Replicator configuration settings is created for you. By default, these settings are used to manage the User Replicator on an organization-wide basis. Management of the User Replicator consists of identifying the domains that Skype for Business Server needs to synch with as well as indicating how often the User Replicator checks Active Directory for user account updates. By default, the User Replicator discovers and synchs with all available domains. However, by using the AdDomainNamingContextList property you can restrict synchronization to a specific set of domains: the domains that appear in the AdDomainNamingContextList property.
If you are working with Skype for Business Server you can also use the CsUserReplicatorConfiguration cmdlets to create and manage configuration settings at the service scope. However, with the on-premises version of Skype for Business Server you are limited to a single collection of configuration settings assigned to the global scope.
The Get-CsUserReplicatorConfiguration cmdlet enables administrators to return information about all the User Replicator settings currently employed in their organization.
Examples
