User Guide

● Deletes user accounts derived from the external user directory if the user directory is
removed from the Shared Services search order
● Updates Native Directory if the user or group in the external user directory is moved from
one OU to another (the OU to which the user or group is moved must be configured in
Shared Services)
Update Native Directory Utility does not update Native Directory if the external user
directory cannot be reached because of configuration or connection problems.

After migrating user and group information in Native Directory, you must migrate the user
and group information in Hyperion product repositories. See “Product-Specific Updates”
on page 128 for detailed procedures.
