Click to select the groups you want to sync from Active Directory to the directory.
When you add an Active Directory group, if members of that group are not in the Users list, they are
added.
N The Directories Management user authentication system imports data from Active Directory
when adding groups and users, and the speed of the system is limited by Active Directory capabilities.
As a result, import operations may require a signicant amount of time depending on the number of
groups and users being added. To minimize the potential for delays or problems, limit the number of
groups and users to only those required for vRealize Automation operation. If your system
performance degrades or if errors occur, close any unneeded applications and ensure that your system
has appropriate memory allocated to Active Directory. If problems persist, increase the Active Directory
memory allocation as needed. For systems with large numbers of users and groups, you may need to
increase the Active Directory memory allocation to as much as 24 GB.

to lter by, the query rule, and the value.
