Hi,
We’d like to switch our UCS setup to use Active Directory synchronization, one way from AD to UCS.
I’ve build a test-setup like this:
dc-root-1.root.local 172.18.1.101
dc-sub1-1.sub1.local 172.18.1.102
ucs-sub1-1.sub1.local 172.18.1.104
Steps I took:
- Created the root.local forest with dc-root-1
- Created a child domain with dc-sub1-1
- Booted a fresh UCS 4.4-6 server from the UCS-VMware-Image download, went through the install pointing DNS at dc-sub1-1, set it up with a new UCS domain sub1.root.local and both the Active Directory Connection and Active Directory-compatible Domain Controller Apps.
- Rebooted the UCS server after the install because it asked for it.
- Configured an unencrypted Active Directory sync through the app, unidirectional from AD to UCS.
- Attempted to start the service, but it won’t start. Inspecting the journal from the commandline gave me this output:
root@ucs-sub1-1:~# systemctl status univention-ad-connector

Am I missing a step in the installation process of this App?
How do I get this sync up and running? (I’m not seeing any of my test AD users in the UCS users view, so I assume it’s not working)
I’m assuming it has something to do with the PID file not being created, but have no idea how to fix this.
Any help would be greatly appriciated!
