Importing Active Directory Users
The Import Active Directory Users option allows you to import various active directory users into ASM.
Perform the following tasks to import the users into ASM:
NOTE: Prior to importing Active Directory users, you must create at least one directory service using
ASM. After importing the users, these users can log in to ASM virtual appliance using the following
format: <
ASM Directory Service Name>/ <user name>, and then type the password.

from ASM. The deleted user cannot log in to the virtual appliance, and you must remove the user
manually from the user list.

same.

the selected directory source.

to search for a user or group in the selected directory.
