[cisco-voip] CUCM 8.5 AD integration question or two

[Lelio Fulgenzi]

No problem. 

Also, take a read of the admin section re: LDAP sync. It mentions which services you need to have enabled. DirSync I believe.

Once you press perform full sync button, it will change to cancel until it's completed. You can refresh the page, or go back to the list of servers and select one and check to see that it's changed back. You can also get a pseudo-status by going to the end users list and seeing how many are imported.
