Removing duplicate users from a directory catalog

If you select "Yes" for the directory catalog configuration option "Remove duplicate users," if the Directory Cataloger encounters more than one entry with the same hierarchical name, it adds to the directory catalog only the first entry with that name that it finds. Directories are searched in the order they're listed in the "Directories to include" configuration field.

If you decide to remove duplicate user entries from the source directories and you remove the one that is used in the directory catalog, that name will no longer be included in the directory catalog until one of the following occurs:

(1) someone modifies the remaining entry which causes the Directory Cataloger to add it to the directory catalog the next time it runs, or,

(2) you rebuild the directory catalog.
