Can Active Directory be set up in the document management software so it can look to multiple domain controllers (in case one is down unexpectedly)?
The Microsoft ADAM technology we employ provides a secure store within the FileHold document management software for the storage of these user accounts. If the synchronization / scheduled task does not have the primary AD controller server available, then it would simply reschedule the next task and synchronize. The ADAM store mitigates against the AD server system by potentially not being available, but then the user would have to logon manually with the form rather than clicking on “Use Windows Authentication” for integrated authentication on the Web Client or Desktop client. The FileHold/ADAM synchronization scheduled task is primarily used when adding users to be used within the document management software system administration for granting System rights and Cabinet/Folder/Schema access permissions. The synchronization event can then add additional users for FileHold system administrators to include within the groups and areas within the document management software.
