Synchronize ALL grids with Active Directory ?

[doug]

Hi Justin – Thanks for the feedback. I’m glad to hear that you like the tool!

There is not currently such a button, but we’ll consider adding one for a future build. In the meantime I would suggest you create a “dummy” row in each grid, and then setup each dummy row with a scheduled task that runs daily to initiate the synchronize operation. Once you have it setup you won’t have to manually synchronize each grid anymore. They’ll all sync on their own at the scheduled time each day. I hope this helps.

Awesome.

I’ve done that.

It’s probably not ideal, as I can’t change the color of that row (it appears like a normal host) and I can’t lock the row to the top or bottom. Also, if I disable the row, it disables the task.

But, I’ve set it up for all 52 grids, and I’ll let that run for now.

I do a lot of sorting in my grids, so it’d be cool if I could hide/pin/disable a row without affecting it’s task. That way I could sort without a dummy row getting in between the real hosts.

Thanks again for your help.

Regards,

Justin

You can change the color of rows with ‘Actions > Modify category, description, location, notes, color etc.’

You can’t pin or hide a row. Not sure why you’d want to disable it unless the goal in that case is to color it. However, now you know how to color it without disabling it, so hopefully that gives you what you need.

As for it getting in between real hosts when sorting, you should be able to easily at least force it to be at the top or bottom just by naming it accordingly. So like you could name it zzzzz or aaaaa or ….. or whatever makes sense. Then it won’t get put between other rows when sorting. It will only go to top or bottom.
