Update users information on AD

Hi,
Monthly I have to update user’s information such as office, Description, Department. I have read something about combining dsquery and dsmod but I didn’t had success.
C:\>dsquery user domainroot -samid "184491" | dsmod user "CN=Franco\, Oscar,OU=Domain Users,DC=mz,DC=sbicdirectory,DC=com" -office "xxxxx" -desc "yyyyy" -dept "vvvvvv" dsmod failed:Value for 'Target object
for this command' has incorrect format.
type dsmod /? for help.dsquery failed:'-samid' is an unknown parameter.
type dsquery /? for help.
Can anyone help?

Hi,
To update the user information using dsquery and dsmod, you can try the command as given below,
- If the user is located in a OU,
dsquery user "cn=testuser,ou=test,dc=mydomian,dc=com" | dsmod user -desc "TestDesc"
- If the user is located in the root path of the domain,
dsquery user "cn=testuser,dc=mydomian,dc=com" | dsmod user -desc "TestDesc"

  • Unable to edit user information from User Admin applet

    Hi
    I'm unable to  update user  information from user admin applet. After selecting a particular user, i'm updating his full name and trying to save the details. When i click on save i'm getting below error
    "Unable to execute service EDIT_USER and function addUserAttributes",(System Error: Unable to execute query 'uUsersClassifiedMarkings(UPDATE Users SET uClassifiedMarkings='No Markings'WHERE(uClassifiedMarkings is  null OR uClassifiedMarkings="))'.ORA-00904:"UCLASSIFIEDMARKINGS":invalid Identifier java.sql.SQLSyntaxException: ORA-00904:"UCLASSIFIEDMARKINGS": invalid identifier)
    Kindly let know what is issue or how to resolve this error

    Ok,lets give it a shot. Can you please check if you have any Security Classifications added by navigating to Records->Configure->Security->Security Classification
    If you do not see any entries here, then use the Add button to add the following
    - No Markings
    - Secret
    - Top Secret
    - Confidential
    Now try to update the user info using the admin applet. In the edit window assign Security Classification to "No Markings" and try submitting the update. Let us know what is the outcome.
    I completely agree with William on his analysis. Please try these steps if you are working on a Dev/POC instance.

    Actually scripts run fine with excel file, currently we are using user-id to pick to update AD. Now we want to update AD use employee id. You can say to identify the record in AD through employee ID instead of user-id. 
    I do not think you will get anyone here to fix that for you.  You need to find someone who knows PowerShell to help you or learn PowerShell your self.
    I would fix it for you but not for free.  It is too oddly designed and has too many dependencies.  Any small change is likely to break it.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • How to Update Picture column in User Information List?

    Hi,
    The user updated his profile picture in mysite about 10 days ago. The updated picture is shown on his mysite but the same is not in sync with User Information List. The 2 timer job which takes care of the profile synchronization are scheduled as below:
    Profile Synchronization : hourly
    Quick Profile Synchronization : every 2 minutes
    And both the timer job status are shown as successful, yet the picture url is not updated.
    Can anyone kindly let me know is there any way to update the same manually.
    Please note that the version of SharEPoint is 2007 and Windows server 2003.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi Sheetal Lomate,
    It is correct to check the profile synchronization jobs to make sure profile information syncs between user profiles and user information list.
    If it is still not synced, please use the following stsadm command:
    stsadm –o sync –listolddatabases <x number of days>
    If one or more content databases show up in this list, clean up the list, they can be added to the list again:
    stsadm –o sync –deleteolddatabases <x number of days>

  • User profile service not updating 'Title' in user information list

    Hi,
    In our SharePoint farm, following two user profile sync timer jobs are successfully running but not updating the 'Title' in the hidden user information list.
    User Profile to SharePoint Full Synchronization
    User Profile to SharePoint Quick Synchronization.
    Can someone point me to the right direction? Please note that I don't want to use powershell script shown here to update the 'Title' in the user information list -

    Hi,
    There are two jobs, User Profile to SharePoint Quick Sync and User Profile to SharePoint Full Sync, that synchronize the User Profile database information with the user information list. Sometimes this stops working (properly) and in that case
    you need to run:
    Stsadm.exe –o sync –listolddatabases 0
    Stsadm.exe –o sync –deleteolddatabases 0
    The first command will display all the databases and when they have been sync’d last.
    The second command will delete the records corresponding to those databases (it doesn't delete databases/end user data).
    Anyways, running this will basically tell the timer jobs that they have never sync’d and force them to carry on as if it’s the first time.
    Go to Central Admin and fire off the User Profile to SharePoint Full Synchronization
    job.
    For detailed information, refer to the following article:

  • User Profile email address not updated on Site Collection User Information

    Hi All,
    Ok here we go....SharePoint 2007 with SSP profile sync not enabled, however I have a few profiles I need to update (email address).  This has been completed by editing the user profile in SSP, but when viewing the information via Site Collection >
    People & Groups > User Information "Work E-mail" is still showing the old one.
    All alerts are still being sent to the old email address, SSP DB UserProfile_Full shows the new email address as per SSP.
    Anyone know where else user profile emails are stored which is used by Exchange?
    Many Thanks, Roger

    As per the following post from GuYuming
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/319d5b0e-336a-4815-9ee5-5d1685db867f/how-to-send-sharepoint-alerts-to-users-on-different-domain?forum=sharepointadminlegacy
    After the email address in SharePoint user profile is updated to [email protected], you have to wait until
    they are synchronized into the user information list in SharePoint site collections so that alert can be sent to that address. For detail, please read http://vspug.com/mirjam/2009/06/17/user-profiles-and-the-user-information-list-or-userinfo-table/ and http://blogs.technet.com/paulpaa/archive/2009/10/01/user-profile-information-not-updated-on-site-collection-s-people-and-group.aspx

  • System Update 4 on Windows 7 64bit - An error occurred while gathering user information

    Dear all,
    I installed System Update 4 on Windows 7 64bit (X300 laptop) and keep getting "An error occurred while gathering user information" at about 9% of Searching for agent updates.
    I tried searching Google and this forum for possible solutions, but without much success. I would appreciate any help on this.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    in this situation try following:
    open registry:
    HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node\Software\Lenovo\System Update\Preferences\UCSettings\RunTime
    check if the informations are correct.
    In case not, then correct them.
    - Try to run TVSU as Administrator (right-click on it and select Run as Administrator)
    In case this will be of no use, then just go into the install folder of TVSU and there you will see the folder called "Logs". In there you will for sure find the exact information on what went wrong. Perhaps some proxy config, or just the server was unavailable.
    Cheers

  • ThinkVantage System Update -- An error occurred while gathering user information

    I receive this message after selecting "Get New Updates" in Version 3.14.0031 of this software.  I am running Windows XP SP3 on an X200 Thinkpad.  I have tried removing and reinstalling the program without success.

    1. Version 6.0.5717.35 is for the ThinkVantage Toolbox and the version I have installed now is 6.0.5802.25.  Is there a way to use Toolbox to do a System Update?
    2. The ThinkVantage System Update I have installed is at version 3.14.0034 with a build date of 2011-4-18.  The System Update installed this version itself and is showing as the current version.
    So I seem to be up-to-date on the software but am still getting the same error message "An error occurred while gathering user information"; when the progress bar is at 9%.
    Thanks, any help on this would be appreciated.

    Over the years I have had many ISP and email addresses - but now we have  finally gone almost fully virtual...
    I have a live login and MS ID 4 my SkyDrive account but I only use my MS  touch with 8.1, SkyDrive and office 365 for mobility.
    And I still like to backup to my own server!!!
    What would be good is if I can put all the software licenses and product  keys of the software and keep a record of my mac addresses for  hardware  and even static IP's in a file or a secure location within the MS online  store.
    That's where MS wants me to get my computing needs from in future and I  will always be able to retrieve it in future but what about the $$$$$ I have  spent on software, hardware and applications prior to now???
    I know u guys love 2 collect data 4 marketing analysis,
    4 example I have an old PC that is still running a server from last century  - if you knew about it a simple script would allow you to offer upgrades or at  least relevant MS products - UNLIKE the rubbish adds I just turn off or tune out 
    now...
    Why cant I add products previous online email purchases into the 1 MS live  ID account where I can keep it together? If you make that available I don't have  to have separate steam accounts, EA game accounts, ASUS and adobe accounts etc 
    etc.
    What has brought me 2 this is I was looking for my office pro 2007 disks to  rebuild a HOME USE ONLY windows 7 laptop (NO touch screen so 8.1 is no benefit  at all)
    I HAVE 4 Genuine PRODUCT KEYs for Office 2007 BUT EVERY TIME I WENT TO  DOWNLOAD the software - regardless of the key I used - I got the error message:  We are sorry, but we are unable to complete your request.•The Office 2007  Product Key

    That's crap - This is a clean brand spanker install of Win7 and there was  nothing b4 I put the oem drivers from Toshiba back on.
    I looked at dozens of support pages and forum blogs and tried for hours to  get a copy to download - including incognito and other logins but because my  default PC name is also my MS Windows live ID the same error was repeated.
    I keep away from the non MS sites for these things and with good reason -  there were heaps of similar users with the same issue or very close to it that  had downloaded from a supposed MS copy from eValue or digital river etc and the  next
    thing was total corruption of the OS.
    EVENTUALLY I found a LIVE MS chat on a support site in the US and she gave  me a link to a slightly older version which will need updating and some reg edit  changes but so far, so good.
    The point is - what a crock !
    I should be able to just keep all my software, drivers, updates, service  packs, and versions that I have upgraded in the MS store.
    If Microsoft aren't going to support XP or Office 2003 and eventually 2007,  vista & Windows7 not far behind??? then that's still no excuse for them to  put these restrictions and limits when I OWN my copy of the software!!
    Unlike office 365 and SkyDrive space which is described in the T&C  (that we all read before ticking that radial button to agree of course) as ONLY  under a leased licence.

  • Custom reprot to get transfer user information in OIA 11g

    Hi ,
    As per my requirement we have to developed custom report for "*List of users who transferred to a new Direct Manager*" . To identify the transfer event we are using event listner in OIA 11g. Could you please provide me pointer how to fetch the transfer event in the query or what is the best way to get the transfer user information.
    Regards,
    Amit

    You're biggest problem is knowing which users get new managers.
    2 Ways on looking at this
    1 - Users associated to businessunits (different managers are associated to different businessunits)
    2 - The users attribute 'manager' gets updated
    Both situations don't withhold the information when associations or which attributes (and when) get updated other than the 'last updated' date gets updated.
    Possible solution - Create a new table (with the exact schema as the original table but without the constraints), copy all the information over from the original table to the new table, do the imports/updated. Once the updates are complete run a custom report and compare the difference between the old and new data
    If it's #1, you need to duplicate the rbacxservice.BU_globalusers table
    If it's #2, you need to duplicate the globalusers table

    I want iTunes to STOP updating my information.  Each time I open my 21,000 song library in which I have carefully customized 'genre' and 'album' and 'album sort' iTunes CHANGES MY SETTINGS.  I want to stop this unasked for and unwanted corruption of my entries, please.  (e.g. album sort undoes alphabetical song order for an artist, which is unwanted and irritating .. I have ALL of my 'album sort' set as * .. this provides perfect alphabetization .. please stop changing 'genre' and 'album' and 'album sort'.

    Are you now seeing two versions of Mail in Applications?
    Try moving the small 8.1MB Mail.app to the Trash. But don't empty it. Then download and install the Security Update again. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586
    If that doesn't work, use File>Put Back for the one in the Trash and see this post and the two following it. If you get another small one as a result, you can keep working with that one for this workaround. You won't need the one from the Trash.

  • Get user information in shared queue

    Hi all,
    The case is:
    - My queue shared to some user (say A, B abd C)
    - After some task assign to me I would like to send the email to all user shared my queue too (i.e. A, B and C)
    Would like to know if there are any way to find the user information (login id, UID etc....), so I can find there email address?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Bill

    Hi,
    I am trying to send the email when the task assign to the user who own the shared queue, but after I research the event object, it seem that it is not the same as the event we use in the event driven programming... so I just give up and send the email BEFORE assign the task.
    After I look at the system db tables again and again, I come up with the following SQL, which the result look like what I want, feel free to try at your environment:
    select e.email
      from tb_shared_users_2_shared_queues sq, tb_queue q, edcprincipalentity e, edcprincipaluserentity eu
    where q.workflow_principal_id = eu.refprincipalid
       and eu.uidstring = ? // user login id go here
       and q.workflow_principal_id <> sq.shared_queues_id // ignore queue owner
       and q.id = sq.shared_users_id
       and sq.shared_queues_id = e.id
    I am still asking Adobe support for the official method to get the above information, because I think the system tables may change in system update, so... use at your own risk.
    Wish it help.
    Regards
    Bill
